Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl! -

Recipe's preparation
- 1. Add onion, ginger, garlic and chilli paste (or chilli if using) to the TM bowl and chop for 5 seconds on speed 5. Scrape down the sides of TM bowl with a spatula, add your oil and saute for 2 minutes, 100 degrees, speed 1, MC OFF.
2. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, tomato sauce and water and to TM bowl and cook for 5 minutes, 100 degrees, spoon speed (slowest speed), MC ON.
3. Add chicken to TM bowl and cook for 1 minute, varoma, reverse, spoon speed (slowest speed), MC ON.
4. Add noodles, salt, bean sprouts (if using) and greens to TM bowl. Use a spatula and give them a good stir to coat in the sauce as much as you can. Cook for 4 minutes, varoma, reverse, spoon speed (slowest speed), MC ON. NOTE: There is no need to pre-cook or rinse the noodles, they are used straight from the packet - SEE TIPS BELOW.
5. When the noodles have finished cooking, check to see the meat is cooked then pour the contents of the TM bowl into a thermoserver and let sit for about 5 minutes with the lid on to soak up some of the liquid before serving. Optional: Garnish with fried shallots, spring onion, fresh coriander, chilli.

Tip
NOTE: As this is cooked in a Thermomix and not on the stove, it will seem quite "watery". In the last step make sure you let it sit to absorb some of the liquid before serving. It is meant to have a little bit of sauce anyway.
You can use prawns or any other meat in place of the chicken. I often use thinly sliced beef. Check in step 5 if the meat is cooked and if not, add an extra 2 minutes and check again.
I use hokkien noodles cold from the fridge section as I find they hold their shape better than the shelf life noodles. There is no need to rinse or pre-cook the noodles. HOT TIP: not rinsing them is a good way to ensure they hold their shape and do not shred.
This recipe has been handed down to me by Malay/Singapore/Indonesian family members and is authentic to our family. I have a stove top version available on my Instagram. This was converted to Thermomix at the request of my group members who wanted Thermo steps. It uses a very similar method to my Laksa Noodle Stir fry recipe also here on the recipe community.

Made it tonight. I ended up finishing it in the wok as the amount of food in my Thermomix bowl, the top wasn't mixing in to well, but liked the flavour.

smallen3: the temperature for the chicken is varoma (as stated in the recipe), varoma is steaming temp or the highest temp on your machine. Yes it is quite watery as it is cooked in a Thermomix rather than stove top. Please ensure you let it sit before serving to absorb some of the liquid, as per the last step in the recipe. It is meant to have a little bit of sauce anyway but you'll find most gets absorbed.
Brilliant recipe loved it....

Delicious! This recipe is going on repeat in our house. So simple and easy to make, and I agree very authentic. Followed recipe as is - used 1 red chilli instead of chilli paste and added an extra 2 minutes cooking time at the end as per tips and it was perfect! Thanks for taking the time to post ☺️

Thank you for the recipe. I really enjoyed it. I was slightly confused about how to fully cook the chicken as I couldn't find a temperature once chicken was put in so I just pre-cooked it in a pan. I am new to Thermomix. Also, this isnt a criticism but a question. My sauce came out quite watery. I still really enjoyed the flavour but thought maybe I have done something wrong? Used all the right ingredient amounts. Still yummy though

This is a winner! My hubby is from Indonesia (not Bali, Bali food is a completely different thing and should not be be compared to proper South East Asian food) and I cooked this for him and his mother who both agreed that this is the real deal and the best tasting mee goreng outside of South East Asia! Thank you Tanya for sharing your family recipes and please keep on sharing!

Made this and my whole family loved it. Hubby even went and had seconds. It was very easy to make. So flavoursome & once it sat in the Thermo server the liquid had absorbed. Would definitely make again and have passed on the recipe to friends.

Awesome and quick recipe! Flavour is just like the mee goreng we find at the local mamak shop (malaysia style coffee shop!) Add more sambal if you like it more spicy. Easy to adjust taste to your liking. Yummy! Thanks Tanya

samdobbyn: worked perfectly well for me. I don't know what you did wrong that it didn't work? I followed the recipe & this had beautiful flavour that my family really enjoyed. Didn't need a wok, thermomix version was lovely. Steps are very easy to follow. Can't get a more simple, easy, flavoursome recipe? Guess we all like different things & maybe this recipe isn't for you.

Aussie TM5 Thermomixer: really passive aggressive reply. I'm no newby, I was unaware to only post positive comments. I can't find any for this recipe. Regardless being free or not. May work in a wok or pan , definitely doesn't in a thermo. My comments were for newbies that need every step laid out. I've owned a Thermomix for 9 years . Use almost daily

KristiK:was watery and tasteless, I'm a cook and a very good one . I can figure out how to cook packet noodles. Some are new and need every step mapped out.

samdobbyn: Are we reading the same recipe?? Unless it's stated in the recipe to take MC off, it stays on. Also, there was no prep work needed for the noodles as there are no instructions to say so. As you are new and unsure, maybe you can seek clarification from the recipe author, your consultant or more experienced users on various Thermomix groups on FB and the likes before trying another recipe. My family loved this recipe and we are proof that it definitely can be cooked in the Thermomix!
samdobbyn: i made this tonight with no troubles? I...
samdobbyn: i made this tonight with no troubles? I don't know what you did wrong to say it was tasteless? Mc is always on unless stated otherwise. Hokkien noodles are pretty simple to work out how to cook, they just need to be heated through. Simple!
New goreng ...
New goreng
cant be cooked in the thermo and this is a perfect example why. Absolutely tasteless and missing steps for newbies. Do I add the MC or not do i pre cook the noodles or not. I followed recipe to a tee (as much as I could) little bit of guess work needed. I do not recommend this recipe
