Fried Laksa Noodle

Photobucket

Laksa noodle mainly cooked with soup, accompany by hot, spicy and sour Assam gravy. Assam Laksa is very popular in Penang, Malaysia. One of the most appetizing dish if you happen to dine in Penang. I love this dish to bits, and whenever I go to Penang for vacation, I will surely opt for this specialty dish.

Fried Laksa noodle can be a great idea too. The noodle texture is smooth, slippery & simply nice to chew on, even my little boy loves this dish. Accompany by added ingredients like the seafood tofu & Hong Kong Choy Sam, enhance the taste of the laksa noodle. If you are a "noodle lover", you would like to try this simple yet authentic Asian Fried Laksa Noodle.
