Additional Tips
All noodle dishes are essentially Chinese in origin, but the addition of dried spices, including a generous amount of chile, makes this dish unmistakably Singaporean. Hokkien noodles look like thick, yellow spaghetti. Look for them in the refrigerator section of your Asian grocery store. If you can't find them, you can substitute any other fresh wheat and egg noodle. You can also substitute bok choy or broccoli florets for the Chinese flowering cabbage.
