Mee Rebus Recipe
Mee Rebus is a popular Malaysian noodle dish known for its rich, flavorful gravy. Made from a blend of spices, potatoes, and sometimes tamarind, this dish has a unique taste that’s both savory and slightly tangy. The noodles are usually topped with fresh ingredients like boiled eggs, fried bean curd (firm tofu) and crispy fried shallots, and finished with a dollop of sambal and a squeeze of lime. Whether you’re enjoying it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, Mee Rebus is a delicious and comforting meal that’s loved by many. This recipe is contributed by Ann, which she learned from her mother-in-law. The gravy is thick, rich, and bursting with flavor, with a delightful hint of sourness from tamarind paste and lime juice. It’s served with cucur udang (Malaysian prawn fritters) and fried shallots, which are perfect for soaking up all that amazing gravy. Another great touch is adding sambal, which gives the dish an extra kick and elevates the whole experience. You may also serve it with lime wedges. The overall taste depends on the type of curry paste and potatoes you use. Cooking is all about adjusting to taste, so feel free to experiment with the amounts and tweak them to your preference.
