Moonlight Hor Fun
The Meatmen
February 21, 2023
Not the most common ZiChar dish but definitely one we always order when we do see it!
Moonlight Hor Fun is really your regular hor fun topped with a raw egg or egg yolk. The reason why it’s called moonlight is because when the golden yolk is stirred into the charred brown noodles, it looks like moonlight shining through a river. Mixing in the fresh, raw egg gives the already umami rich seafood broth and flavourful rice noodles makes the entire dish extra buttery and creamy.
Pro tip: Stir fry the rice noodles in high heat for wok hei!
