Cantonese Yee Mee for you information is my favourite as well. I just so love it and whenever I am at the Chinese noodle stalls, I can't resist Cantonese Yee Mee. I too love any kinda of Chinese soupy or wet noodles compared to the dried or stir fried ones (Char Kway Teow, Hokkien Mee, Chow Mein & Hakka Noodles) which by far seemingly my other half-half lovingly will tuck in. Anyway, instead of heading to the Chinese stalls and for ensuring that my other half-half can savour into too, I made this halal version. My other half-half and pork? Its a big no. Thus, a seafood version had to the best. How do we make Cantonese Yee Mee? Get ready the ingredients as listed below, including the coiled brown crunchy noodles, known as yee mee or ye mein, and the rest will will fall in place if you follow my recipe. Yee Mee soaking in a thick prawn based broth (Prawn Noodle Soup) and seafood and mustard green for completing Cantonese Yee Mee as a fantastic and satisfying Chinese noodle dish.
