Mee Siam

(Siamese Noodles)

Mee siam or Siamese noodles is a dish that is popular in Malaysia and Singapore, and it is believed to have been inspired by Thai cuisine and flavors. It is made with vermicelli noodles which are fried with small shrimps, bean sprouts, soybeans, and chili paste.


The dish is usually topped with spring onions, red chili peppers, fried onions, coriander, and omelet strips, while lime wedges are always served on the side so that each person can drizzle mee siam with lime juice to their preference. This dish is usually prepared in large quantities on special occasions such as end-of-school parties.
