First things first – this is big. The noodle blocks are physically really big. I’ll let you watch the episode of Instant Noodle Recipe Time below so you can understand more fully. But E-Fu – let’s look on Wikipedia for more info –
Yi mein (Chinese: 伊麵; pinyin: yī miàn; Cantonese Yale: yī mihn) is a variety of flat Cantonese egg noodles made from wheat flour. They are known for their golden yellow color and chewy characteristics. The slightly chewy and slightly spongy texture of the noodles is due to the soda water used in making the dough (as opposed to regular non-carbonated water), which is then fried and dried into flat patty-like dried bricks.
Lobster yi mein (龍蝦伊麵), it is sometimes served with cheese in Hong Kong.
Okay now I’m excited – cheese! Lobster! Plus, these are curry lobster! Let’s give it a try!
