AFF Indonesia - Chicken Mushroom Noodles

No Indonesian doesn't know this dish. It's so famous and there are so many versions available everywhere

I also have posted similar noodle dish HERE and HERE

There's one very famous restaurant, Bakmi GM, serves all delicious cookings, but their signature dish is chicken mushroom noodles with beef ball soup on the side
Usually people eating there will definitely order this dish, accompanied by fried wonton - very yummy!

Okay, I cooked this dish and tried to be as close as possible with the one from Bakmi GM
But as for the fried wonton, I was lazy to make the filling so I just made the skin without filling. Hey, it's still yummy, you know :)




As far as I remember, bakmi GM serves the chicken dish with straw mushroom instead of button mushroom. I was totally forgotten and just realized after my chicken dish was ready LOL Well, with button mushroom is still as yummy :)



My homemade fried wonton skin. Bakmi GM version is not the crispy like those chips like crispiness. Instead it's more to soft crisp texture. Very addictive. And it's usually very wide skin - about the size of your palm, with a tiny filling in one corner. It's served with dipping sauce, sweet sour kind
Here I made into mini small rectangular shapes. Easier to fry. Easier to eat :)
