Silver Needle Noodles....its a much better translation compared to what my family used to call it.. rat noodles...haha! I guess the reason why its call rat noodles is due to its shape...it looks like a rat's tail. Lou Shee Fun is made from rice flour and it can be made into soup noodles, stir-fried noodles or claypot style. When I was young, whenever I see my Grandaunt taking a claypot out from the cabinet, I will shout...lou shee fun, lou shee fun, lou shee fun...
Moving forward, now, my family loves lou shee fun too and I cooked it my Grandaunt's style. I don't even have enough time to clean the claypot as my children were asking for their lunch, even my DH pinched some. So...here's a quick snapshot of my lou shee fun before it was whisked off. Please ignore the mess around the claypot...just focus on the lou shee fun....
This is a popular dish in Malaysia and Singapore.
