Mee Bandung Muar
Mee Bandung Muar is a traditional Malaysian dish that originates from Muar, a town in the Johor state of Malaysia. The term "Bandung" is derived from the Indonesian word for "mix", reflecting the dish's combination of various ingredients. Despite its name, Mee Bandung Muar is not from Bandung, a city in Indonesia, but is a unique culinary creation of Malaysia.
Ingredients and Preparation[edit | edit source]
Mee Bandung Muar primarily consists of noodles, usually yellow noodles, served in a thick, spicy broth. The broth is made from a blend of chili, onion, spices, shrimp paste, and dried shrimp. The dish is typically garnished with seafood, particularly prawns, as well as boiled egg, vegetables, and slices of meat. Some variations of the dish may also include squid or other types of seafood.
The preparation of Mee Bandung Muar involves first preparing the broth by sautéing the spices and then adding water or stock. The noodles are then cooked separately and placed in a bowl, before the broth is poured over them. The dish is then garnished with the seafood, meat, and vegetables.
Cultural Significance[edit | edit source]
