I am still catching up on my emails. Thanks for the simple recipe above (you forgot the mung bean sprouts) :) Using shrimp broth is a good idea - I make that from the shrimp heads and shells. For sambal chili, I have Glory brand (bought from Ranch 99). It's pretty good. I currently have one pkt of Prima Taste Hokkien Prawn Mee left. Will use that first before using your recipe :) Hi Winnie, sorry for the late reply. I am still catching up on my emails.

I thought these were OK to bring in because they were non-meat products. Wow you actually declared them to customs! I thought these were OK to bring in because they were non-meat products.

The first time I made this, I used a small whole chicken. I decided that it was too tedious to cut the chicken into its parts. Besides, I am not too keen on breast meat, although that is supposed to be the healthier part of the chicken. The packet instructions also said to simmer the chicken in the stock for half an hour. Because the stock is made from a packet of Prima Paste, it kind of discolored the chicken meat and the end result was that the chicken meat did not look whitish, like what you find in authentic Hainanese Chicken Rice.

I wanted to, but procrastinated for so long because I can't handle live crabs :( I think the crab premix will go well with some pasta dishes-tasted back in some cafes in S'pore before.
