Misua (also spelled mee sua or called misoya) is a very thin variety of salted Chinese noodles made from wheat flour,salt and water. Misua signifies long life in Chinese culture, and as such is a traditional birthday food. It is usually served topped with ingredients such as eggs, oysters, shiitake mushroom, shallots, or scallions.
Misua are cooked during important festivities, and eaten in China as well in Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Brunei, Thailand, and the Philippines.
This recipe is something that I created ,after watching a food review program on the local TV channel.
I bought a packet of Misua which costs RM1.80.There were 4 rolls of misua .I used one roll to make this delicious dish. It was quite tasty and actually it was the first time for me trying out the dish and tasting it as well.
