String Hopper Kottu

 

This is such a simple recipe that I wonder, is it really even a recipe?

Shred 12-20 white string hoppers gently, without mushing them

Fry in butter or oil:

1 onion, diced

1 tomato, diced

3 garlic cloves, chopped finely

2 large carrots, chopped finely

3 large capsicums de-seeded or 1 red bell pepper

Protein (shredded chicken/beef, crumbed fish, soya meat mince, fried seafood like prawns or cuttlefish, fried tofu, fried chickpeas, sausages, corned beef/mutton, fried meatballs etc.)

Curry leaves

Pandan/rampe

Onion leaves/shallots

Freshly boiled corn

1 tbsp chillie flakes

Add soy sauce and salt to taste. Add the string hoppers and mix well.

 If you have it, add chicken curry gravy before tossing the kottu.
