I tried this at one of the hawker centre somewhere D2 place. It cost me $6. Really love the soup, it taste differently between rice noodle 粗米粉 and 意面 as the latter been fried before. With additional 1 tbsp of XO, the soup turns out great. Sweet and tasty.
1. Marinate sliced fish with seasoning B for at least 30 minutes (I marinated them for one whole night to get the full flavour)
2. Heat oil in wok. Fry ginger and fish until 50% cooked.
3. Pour in water and bring to boil.
4. Add in noodle, evaporated milk, cuttle fish and seasoning A. Cook for 3 minutes or until the noodle is getting soft.
5. Add in vege and cook for 30 seconds.
6. Remove from heat.
7. Add in 1 tbsp of XO wine and stir well before serving. (this is optional)
note: the evaporated milk is used to get rid of the fishy smell, and make it tastier.
