This is a continuation from the previous post.

To recap, Snow Mount at Clementi 448 Market & Food Centre houses two of my favorite food within one stall.

One half of the stall sells fried banana, or goreng pisang while the other half, sells fried kway teow (flat rice noodle).

You may find my post about their fried banana in the link above. I shall continue with the fried kway teow in this post.

I was lucky to arrive at the stall just before noon to avoid the lunch crowd. I could immediately place an order for the largest plate of fried kway teow ($3/$4/$5). The smallest portion does not include see-hum (blood cockles).

It took just about five minutes for my order to be fried from scratch.

The kway teow is well fried with a smoky-infused flavor. Ingredients included see-hum, lup cheong, egg, fish cake, bean sprouts and even crispy pork lard. If you prefer your fried kway teow wetter, do take note that the version here is on the drier side.

I personally felt that the fried kway teow here is more on the healthier side through some observations I made.

Firstly, there is no runaway oil when I tilt the plate. Even after I finished everything, there is not much residue of oil left behind on the plate.

Secondly, they are not too heavy-handed on seasonings like light soy sauce and sweet sauce as I feel the flavor is neither too salty or too sweet which you might noticed from the lighter colors of the kway teow.

See-hum (blood cockles) are an integral part of fried kway teow and I could not imagine having fried kway teow without them. Although there are several see-hum on the plate, they are all on the smaller side therefore I could not feel the burst of "ocean" flavors in my mouth which is such a pity.
