hokkien.mee

never thought you will fry up a plate of kl style hokkien mee at home.  thanks to a friend A who gave you a bottle of cheong chan thick caramel sauce which you cannot get in the lowland but only available in the england.
 with that sauce, you went to the full extend sourcing for the pork belly meat and making pork cracklings out of it and use the pork fat to fried your plate of hokkien mee.
 it's super unhealthy, and you probably will go this extend only once with the pork fat and cracklings, been there, done that and you are satisfied.
the only minus is your ceramic wok doesn't give enough heat to such fried noodles. it would be even more tastier and better if you fried over a gas fire. but you have to do with what you have and this is still a very satisfied yet guilty conscious plate of hokkien mee.

it's almost weekend, yes you are counting down for your trip this saturday, you still haven't pack your luggage but the weather in big apple seems promising, at least a lot warmer than lowland. you can't wait to get there ^^...

I would like to respectfully suggest that the guilt is unnecessary. Despite what most of us have been made to believe, saturated fat is not actually unhealthy. Try googling 'saturated fat myth' and you might be surprised.

In the 1970s, governments starting pushing low fat-high carb and in the 30+ years since, fat consumption has decreased while carb consumption has increased. During the same time period, the incidence of Type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease also increased - almost exactly in tandem with the rise in carbohydrate consumption.

If fat is so unhealthy, how come fat consumption has decreased so much in the past 30 years, yet the incidence of so-called 'lifestyle diseases has gone up by so much?
