About Char kuey teow

Char Kuey Teow is a popular Malaysian stir-fried noodle dish featuring flat rice noodles, prawns, egg, Chinese sausage, bean sprouts, and chives, all cooked in a smoky, flavorful coating of soy sauce and occasionally dark soy sauce. Often enhanced with garlic, chili, and lard for richness, this dish is renowned for its "wok hei," a distinct charred aroma achieved from high-heat cooking. While Char Kuey Teow is beloved for its robust flavor, it is often considered indulgent due to its high fat and sodium content, especially when cooked with lard and added sauces. However, the dish provides protein from the prawns and egg, along with some fiber from the bean sprouts. While traditionally prepared as a rich comfort food, healthier variations can include lean protein choices, reduced oil, and increased vegetable content to enhance nutritional balance.
