Even at the high grocery prices we are experiencing now, this meal is still less than $10 for a family of 4! Eat well, save money. Happy Sunday! 💕

[@TracyKMainwaring]

this looks so yummy. Since I'm really close to being pre-diabetic though, it's not something I can enjoy. My daughter would love it

[@FloLum]

@Tracy Mainwaring So sorry to hear that. 😔

[@TracyKMainwaring]

@@FloLum I didn’t mean to comment under your pinned comment…my phone is silly. PreT2D affects SO many people, and most don’t even know they have it. So I’m lucky in a way 😀

[@kwaggoner2494]

Made this tonight Flo. It was a huge hit with the family. I sprinkled a couple handfuls of chopped cashews on top too since I had them in my pantry. Really fantastic and economical recipe.

[@girlloveshemp642]

This looks so good. Where do you get the noodles?

[@gladysma308]

Thank you. 0:43 sauce: 3 T dark sweet sauce, 2 T Light soy, 1 T oyster sauce, 2 T ketchup, and optional spiciness 1 T sambal. precooked noodle 1.25 lb. ; Green union, 3 cloves garlic, 2 shallots, 4 choisum, a handle of sprout, 2 eggs, 6 oz. shrimp, (3 for each person), 6 oz. of chicken (one thigh and a drumstick), 5:17 stir fry

[@maryannr8464]

I love “You can just omit it”. Where it doesn’t make this recipe any less flavorful or delicious. My new favorite because I made this today. Love your cookbook.

[@davidhalldurham]

My mouth is watering! We really appreciate your economical dishes these days. Please keep 'em coming. Also, for people unfamiliar with shrimp paste...well, it's absolutely delicious mixed in dishes, but in its "raw" state it smells like the sewer backed up. In other words, please don't let the smell scare you away.

[@JK-ml4bs]

Your comment is hilarious and spot on! 😂. How much of the shrimp paste (belechan) would you use Flo?

[@IrishAnnie]

Thanks for the warning!!! 😂. That’s what I always say about cheese…..stinky.

[@joemroz1033]

I find fermented shrimp paste in little jars, as a paste.

[@tkam9]

Lee Kum Kee sell shrimp paste in a small jar. You just add a tiny portion like 1/3 of a tea spoon.

[@larryluder4235]

I love that you teaching us these frugal comfort food meal during these hard economic times

[@nataliehowe6213]

I just love how accessible you make your recipes. I have a nice wok, but you also give the option to just use a frying pan. You give suggestions to omit or substitute some of the ingredients if they are hard to find. Anyone could make this, and I can't wait to try it out on the family.

[@kwaggoner2494]

Really appreciating your affordable and easy options. With teens, our grocery bill lately has been insane!!

[@janettanaka2894]

Hi Flo and Dude….I cannot wait to try out this recipe. I’ve made a couple of your noodle dishes with great success. I purchased your cookbook and it just arrived the other day. Very excited to continue with your fantastic recipes. 😊🇨🇦

[@tilerman]

Hi Flo and Dude. Have only just discovered your food channel and it really is a blessing. We love Asian cooking in our home and your channel is our go to for inspiration and recipe's. Thank you for all your work.

[@Bookishplanner85]

Great video! I can’t wait to make this dish. I have tried a few of your recipes and they have all received 👍 from the family. I turn to your recipe book whenever I’m stumped on what to make for dinner. 😋

[@franciskingzett3087]

Thank you so much for all these wonderful recipes! Greatly appreciate how you keep them as simple as possible while still creating such a huge variety of delicious menu choices. And the videos are always entertaining. These noodles turned out perfect at home.

[@constancedreiseidel9412]

Thank you for all of your recipes. I have your cookbook and made the orange chicken tonight but I stir fried the chicken instead of air frying. It was delicious. Thank you again!

[@sonalchavan3973]

This was so therapeutic. Right from your voice to the in-depth explanation. Thank you for sharing.

[@sephinarose420]

I love your videos!! You've helped me branch out my cooking so much!

[@justnotg00d]

Okay, just made the Mee Goreng Noodles. I was hesitant, so many items I have not used before. It is great. I added a tad of Cayenne just to give it a bit more kick. Loved it. I will have to go through your cookbook that I bought and see what else I can do. The Egg Drop Soup that I did came out to $1.41 per serving, about 12 ounces in my bowl. Got 10 servings or so, forgot to count every time. Thank you so much. /// Just finished making and eating (most) of the noodles recipe. It came to $17.87, the cost per serving is $2.98 for a plate that is not small. I had five servings in the last two days and there is one serving left. I loved it. Compare to $20.00 to $25.00 per person for fast food, which is "supposed" to be cheap, there is no comparison. Thank you so much for helping me solve diet/nutrition and financial problems. Thank you, Thank you.

[@michaelmccabe4045]

Hello. I just discovered your videos and wanted to share- My in-laws were from Holland and they often made Indonesian dishes, like Nasi or Bami Goreng. Since they are gone, my wife makes these dishes. I handle the grill when needed. But after watching a number of your vids, I am ready to do it! Thank you, Michael.

[@lynwilson5385]

Another delicious recipe to add to the collection, can't wait to try this one! Fed up and feeling guilty sitting with pen and paper trying to copy your recipe that I've bought your homestyle cookbook, I'm pretty sure it's going to be well used and I can throw out all my scraps of paper! Hahaha

[@gainesvillehomes]

I made this last night and it was fabulous. I've been learning my wok. I've followed your channel and studied well. Thank you!

[@malathimuthuvelu3958]

Hi..I like the way you cut the ingredients accordingly so neat and also well narrated...

[@liamaria2782]

I love the receipe!!! Thanks Flo!!! And I love your channel!! You are awosome, both of you!!!

[@wendyh.169]

Just made it. Really delicious and my whole family enjoyed it! Managed to find all the ingredients listed. Definitely need the splash of sesame oil to balance out the sweetness of the sauce. Will make again!

[@jonesbub1]

Please keep these noodle-friendly, cost conscious dishes coming! Even cooking for one has become costly, so I really appreciate that cost is a major consideration in your videos. TFS, Sharon🤗🇺🇦 P.S. Even though the 🙈made an appearance, thankfully no digits were sacrificed in the making of this video!

[@mehchocolate1257]

@@FloLum where can I get the recipe for that anyway

[@shenanigans_beacon]

@@mehchocolate1257 in the description it says to get the written recipe you have to join patreon. Would be nice though if she at least put the ingredients up though. This may be a meal for under $10, but even the sweet soy sauce is $15.

Very good! My family loved it. Thank you for the recipe.❤️

[@mamawong08]

I’m salivating watching this….. need to make it. Thanks!!!

[@ijsbrandvreugdenhil4652]

Shrimp paste is Trassi, Sambal badjak is the most popular sambal and for Ketjap Manis you can find many recepies on the internet. Ketjap Kental is even thicker. In Nederland we have a rich tradition with Malaysian and Indonesian food. Selamat Makan for Dude and then Habis makan buang piring if you eat from a banana leaf.

Success! I made this and it is a favorite now. Thank you for suggesting the cabbage as an alternative. I also made this with green beans (cut small) because I don't have bean sprouts. Thank you for making it easy.

I appreciate you mentioning thing like the shrimp paste/belacan as we can get that easily where we are so it's nice to be able to include those things when we can get it

[@hunchbackaudio]

Where I’m at it’s called trassi if I’m not mistaken. It looks exactly the same, so I’ll use that.

Greetings to you Flo from Perth in Western Australia 🇦🇺. I am originally from Malaysia and I tried this receipe. It came out well but it was a bit sweet. Our grandchildren loved it. I am going to try it again by replacing the kecap manis with caramelised dark sauce and omit the belachan and increase the sambal. I think the adults will love it. Thank you and have a good time in Hawaii. God bless.
