Mauritian Fried Noodles/Min Frire with La Sauce Lai (Garlic Water)

[@pat8112]

Hi Shelina, I am a Mauritian born guy living in Australia. Love my home here, but forever tugging at my heart strings is the Mauritian lifestyle and especially the food culture, i am an absolute crazy Mauritian food maniac, I grew up on it and I just love it. I learnt to cook from my loving mum, who has now left us but since I was a young fella, I have learnt the basics of Mauritian cuisine, I now cook for my extended family and my Aussie mates and friends. Seems they cannot get enough of it especially he Curry Ourite. Would love to converse with you over recipes and the different methods, anyways, I wish you and your family well for the Easter break, all the best.

Dear Ms Shelina, I was very happy when you uploaded the video recipe of Min Frire with La Sauce Lai, it reflects the Chinese Noodles with the Mauritian Fusion. Another sister recipe is the "Minn Bwi". Minn Bwi which forms an integral part of the "patrimoine culinaire de l'île Maurice", it was once a phenomenon that there was a festival dedicated to it called Festival Minn Bwi. All round the island, Minn Bwi has been readapted to the geographical region and customised taste of food lovers together with a series of side dishes such as meat, poultry, fish, octopus, crab and even with "mangwat" in south eastern coastal region. Unfortunately due to the SARS-CoV-2 pademic, there is a series of restriction regarding fast food. The glass and plastic plates and traditional Chinese bowls have been banned and been replaced by disposable food paper bowls. Many snacks and tibaz manzé have been closed down due to increase in prices of raw materials and sanitary lockdown. As a fan and subscriber, I would suggest you could revive the "Minn Bwi" moments by doing a web series of episodes, in each videos a side dish or two dishes to accompany the Minn Bwi, namely: Kari lavyann ek buyon kott Kari pul ek buyon pul (Bouillon made with scrap whole chicken); Kari pwason; Kari orit; Kari masala somon; Kari gropwa; Buyon bulet pwason, lavyann, sao mai, sousou Buyon krap; Buyon latet pwason; Lefwa mouton; Satini sevrett; Minn bwi ranverse I hope that my suggestion would be taken into kind consideration and that the Mauritian Diaspora too can benefit from your videos. Cordially, Mortician

Ok thanks !

[@MK-rk4no]

I know its naughty, but I always add a teaspoon of msg to my noodles, brings an extra edge to the flavour. But I like your recipe equally, the stages of your recipe makes things easier and everything cooks better when done individually.

[@mkphotofusion3676]

Alo, Ki maniere, Bon manze ca! Ki noodles to pe servi BTW? Ki type?

[@michaelrene2023]

Hi Shelina, I am beginning to like your Mauritian recipes and they are great! I tried your biriyani recipe recently with chicken!! (very simple and tasty). I have now given up red meat. I enjoy chicken , fish and vegetables. I would appreciate a demo of cari Jacques and daube ourite if possible. I am a fan of spices and Asian dishes especially South India. However, I only consume very little natural sugar. Your comments would be greatly appreciated. Christian

[@cissiechensarabadu9145]

Just curious how do you know how to make it? I just came back from Mauritius, miss the noddle already

[@nasrineable]

Hi Shelina thanks for this wonderful recipe actually I am looking for the exactly green chilli recipe that normally goes with this noodles. The Mauritian version home made of course. Do you have it. I know it consist of green chilli garlic oil not too sure what else. Menthe or coriander. Please let me know if you know what am talking about. Thanks.

[@michaelrene2023]

P.S I am presently using the Best-Ever cook's Indian collection by Shehzad Hussain and Rafi Fernandez and The Ultimate Low fat Indian cookbook by Joanna Lorenz. They are both good and I use them for my own creation. Christian

[@farahtasneem3304]

Mauritius chilli paste recipe please

[@shelinacooks]

Ok no problem will try and film that soon x

[@amorty456]

Were the noodles you used dry initially? Does the recipe work ok with those? I know in Mauritius they buy their noodles fresh.

[@maaryalearns703]

Also chicken honey roast... I miss Mauritius

[@sheetalgowrea9108]

Can I use distilled white vinegar instead of white vinegar?

[@sheenabhadye2347]

Looks amazing I’m going to try it this week! How many people would this serve?

[@shelinacooks]

Serve 4 easily

[@natashac6638]

Thank you Shelina. I wanted to ask you how is it that I am not allergic to the prawn cooked in Mauritius when I buy chicken and prawn fried noodle from the restaurant there. Is there a special way they cook/clean them? Thank you. :)

[@yaasc23]
