These noodles are indeed tasty and satisfying.  Every morsel can be swallowed as there are no bones to pick!  Great to enjoy with a hot cup of  Chinese tea, right in front of your TV screen!

    3 servings fresh flat egg noodles is equivalent to many grams? See you make me feel so hungry now?

    The noodles are the wonton mee type, but flat and thicker ones, so 1 'ball' for 1 serving.

Char Siew Pau ~ 蒸叉烧包

I have been itching to try out a Pau recipe and vaguely remember that I did make it once, long, long ago.  So I  got hold of my old file of recipes and finally managed to retrieve it.  I did it recently and must say that I'm satisfied with the result.  The texture of the Pau was soft and a bit chewy, wholesome and filling too.  Naturally, they didn't look so nice and round like the ones sold in the dim sum restaurants, but nonetheless I think homemade ones can be just as delectable as well.
