Char MoiChar Moi (3 August 2013)


Char Moi, also spelled Char Moy, is an increasingly popular dish in Penang. Literally translated as "fried porridge", Char Moi is like a cross between moi2 (porridge) and char1 pnui33 (fried rice). I usually have this at home, though you can also find Char Moi sold at some coffee shops.

Here's my wife's recipe for making Char Moi:

Ingredients:

  1. Cooked porridge - not too watery
  2. Minced pork - marinate with seasoning for 30 minutes
  3. char siew pork - sliced into smaller pieces
  4. Shredded dried cuttlefish - washed and cut into shorter strips
  5. Dried oyster - washed, soaked and cut into smaller pieces
  6. Dried scallops - washed and soaked until soft
  7. Dried prawns - washed and soaked until soft
  8. Chives - cleaned and cut into 3 cm long
  9. Minced garlic
Seasoning
  1. Soya sauce
  2. Dark soya sauce
  3. Oyster sauce
  4. Sugar
  5. Shaoxing wine
  6. Pepper
Method:

  1. Heat a wok and fried the minced garlic until fragrant.
  2. Add in marinated minced meat, 'loosen' the meat and stir-fry for a few minutes.
  3. Add in shredded cuttlefish, dried oyster, scallops, dried prawns and char siew, fry until fragrant.
  4. Add in cooked porridge, stir well.
  5. If the color is not dark enough, add in more dark soya sauce. Adjust taste accordingly.
  6. If the porridge is too thick, pour in some hot water to dilute it, until desired consistency is achieved.
  7. Lastly add in chopped chives, mix well and off the heat.
  8. Dish out and serve hot.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
