Fried Tang Hoon (Fried Glass Noodles)

Many of my friends would know how much I love making easy one-pot meals. Not only do they allow busy working moms like myself to prepare home-cooked and fuss-free meals in a jiffy with minimal washing up, it also takes away the guilt of my family having to eat outside food all the time. 

Fried Tang Hoon (Fried Glass Noodles) is a one-pot dish that I've been whipping up these days, often upon special request from my girl as she enjoys eating this dish.

I've made several 'versions' so far...sometimes with prawns, sometimes with bean sprouts and spring onion, sometimes cooked in non-stick pot for easy washing. Well, it is really 'anything goes' and I cook the dish based on what is available in my fridge.

Do try it. And I hope you will enjoy the dish as much as my family does.
