This dish was inspire by my wife.It is actually called Fried Beehoon in Malaysia -beehoon as in Hokkien or called Fujian dialect for vermicelli.
Here' what you will need
Vermicelli - dried - about 100 gm - soaked in cold water till soft. Or you can use hot water and then rinsed off with cold water. Drain
Bean paste - 50 gm - minced
Black Mushroom - 50 gm - soaked till soft and julienne
Meat - i uses chicken - 50 gm thin slices
Chilli - 1 piece or number - chopped
Garlic - 2 cloves - chopped.
Oyster Sauce
Dark Soy Sauce
Sugar ( optional )
Oil
Water
In a hot wok, pour a little oil from the side. Once hot, sauteed the bean paste till fragrant. Add in the black mushroom, meat, chilli, garlic and sauteed for a few seconds. Dump in some oyster sauce and dark soy sauce to your taste. Add some water and bring to a boil. Lower heat. Pour in the vermicelli and stir with a chopstick or tong till well mixed with the sauce like liquid.
Served hot.
I actually did flambe with a little Shao Xing Rice Wine. Its optional though. You can also served this with some julienne chilli and some fresh coriander leaves.

Welcome Back! Just had Phat Thai with vermicelli the other day, not too bad!!!
Is this the bean paste that has the beans in it, not the ground-up paste? Have you ever tried using Nam yu (red fermented tofu)? The aroma from nam yu is delish...
wuching, there is some meat in it.
slurp - similar
phosgene - lovely phad thai u had, eh ?
vien - i just wanted to try the whole bean paste. YOu can also use the grounded type or even Nam Yu. cept that nam yu will be more pungent.

paz - go ahead and try them
chen - yeah...i never tried them too till lately
