How to cook Laksa Sarawak - cheap , easy and halal way !

For people like me who has a big family, eating at a restaurant is an expensive thing. Luckily I have stolen the secret Sarawak Laksa recipe from Sarawak Club and now I can cook laksa as good as any restaurant !

things you need:
Bihun - Buy it in any supermarket
Taugei
Laksa Paste
Chicken Powder Paste
Mono sodium Glutamate (some call it ajinomoto)
salt
sugar
coconut powder
egg
 some brain

To cook one plate of laksa for 1 person :

Put the bihun inside 'almost boiling' water (water too hot is no good). I always used Bihun from Sarawak but China Bihun is even better but it is expensive and no guarantee to be halal. Wait until it is soften.

Cook some taugeh and put it together with the bihun in a plate.

Fried an egg, make sure you add in just a little bit more oil before frying the egg. Will make the laksa soup tastier.

Do not turn off the fire.

Pour in 3/4 cup of water. Add in some coconut powder. You can buy the powder in packages from supermarket.

Add in 3/4 spoon on Laksa Paste.

Add in half a spoon of chicken powder paste. The Maggy one tasted the best. But it is so expensive that it will cost you an arm and a leg. So I always used clone brand.

Add in some sugar ( just a bit).

After the water is boiling, taste the soup. Add in salt or mono sodium glutamate if needed.

Pour the soup into the bihun and taugei. You are done.

Add in some small lemon juice will make it even better.
