chili paste or the chili powder with the garlic and belachan for 3
minutes until fragrant. Add the chicken and stir-fry until it turns
opaque, about 3 minutes. Then add the prawns and stir-fry until the
prawns are cooked, another 2 minutes.

Then add the soy sauce, tomato sauce, salt and chicken stock, and
cook for 3 minutes until the mixture is dry.
Push the noodles to one side of the wok with the spatula. Add the
eggs and scramble. Then stir the noodles and the eggs together until
the eggs are cooked. (Add a little more chicken stock for a moist Mee
Goreng)
Add the onion, tomato, fresh chilies, and bean sprouts, and stir-fry
for 3 minutes. Then add the fried tofu and mix well until heated
through. Season with ground pepper. Garnish with coriander leaves,
spring onions, fried shallots, and serve fresh limes on the side.
Note: If preferred, substitute spinach or cabbage for the mustard
greens.
