Mee kolo

Mee kolo, or kolo mee, is a Sarawakian dish of dry noodles tossed in a savoury pork and shallot mixture, topped off with fried onions and tossed in a clear sauce.

Ingredients

Though the two dishes are similar, the difference between kolo mee and wonton mee, the latter being popular in Peninsular Malaysia, is that kolo mee is not drenched in dark soy sauce, and water is not added to the noodles when served. Mee kolo comes in two common flavours: plain or seasoned with red sauce. It is usually served with soup and soy sauce, to give the dish a darker appearance and enhance its saltiness. It is topped with char siu pork slices and spring onions or fried shallots.
