The minced beef sauce and the beef balls are essential in determining how tasty it can be. The noodles that go well with beef are usually the wanton or mee hoon (rice vermicelli). Firstly, the wanton noodles must be cooked or blanched to the right texture, resulting in a springy and firm texture. It must not be too soft or with the kan sui taste. The rice vermicelli, better known as mee hoon, is also good to eat as it absorbs the beefy sauce, thus making the noodles very flavourful.
I was introduced to these excellent noodles many years ago by my boyfriend (now husband) when we go dating at Sungai Wang Plaza. The taste have not changed but the price has indeed increased in leaps and bounds, okay blame that on inflation.
Delicious Beef Noodles
The best way to savor the Ngau Kee Noodles is to try the Dry version. The wanton noodles go well with the flavorful and savory minced beef. I'm always amazed by the generous toppings of this wickedly delicious minced meat on the noodles. I usually ask for more chopped celery leaves and spring onions for my noodles, as they really bring out the wonderful taste, too. It's an excellent combination that rarely fails!
The soup was equally fragrant, too. You can smell them from afar, which is how you can distinguish a good one from the rest. Infused with aromatic spices and beef bones, which penetrate fully into a thick beefy soup, it leaves you with a lingering taste. The homemade beef balls are pretty large—meaty and bouncy, one class above the rest I tried or tested. Don't forget to eat this with their amazing sweet and sour chili sauce, as they go well together.
Well, Ngau Kee Beef noodles were an easy, delicious comfort food that has maintained its quality and standard through the years, and for that, I give it a thumbs up.
