Mie Goreng, meaning “fried noodles” in Indonesian and Malay, is a flavorful and aromatic stir-fried noodle dish commonly found in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. It is made using thin yellow noodles stir-fried with a mixture of sweet soy sauce (kecap manis), garlic, shallots, chili, and a combination of vegetables like cabbage and carrots. Often, it includes proteins such as chicken, shrimp, tofu, or beef and is sometimes topped with a fried egg. The dish is well-balanced with sweet, savory, and slightly spicy flavors and is often garnished with fried shallots, lime wedges, and pickles. Mie Goreng is a beloved street food and a staple in Southeast Asian cuisine, enjoyed at home and in restaurants alike.
