            Mee Goreng literally means 'Fried Noodles'.. Its a famous food among South-East Asian countries.. Its a spicy , aromatic and taste-buds tingling noodles, cooked well in soya sauce,red chilli paste and spinach.. , 

            Special noodles  are available at stores here  for preparing this mee.. If you are trying in India, Get plain Egg noodles from stores.. Noodles should be round and big.I tried this once with Hakka Noodles, and it was a utter flop.. so using appropriate noodles is essential.. 

I added tofu which is nothing but Soya Paneer to it.. Here is the recipe..
