Hi Jaden, I’m a big fan of your site. I’m so proud to see Malaysian recipe here. If you wanna try another Malaysian favourite dish, I would suggest Nasi Lemak (rice cooked with coconut milk & pandanus leave) and usually eaten with few other side dishes. It’s an adventurous food for any first timer.

Love your blog and this recipe is tops. This is my favorite thing to eat in Ipoh (I was born in Malaysia and my mother’s family is from there) – I used to have it EVERYDAY despite the warm climate. Thanks for writing this up. More malaysian recipes please!

Hi Jaden,

Yeah, in Ipoh, the noodles are called sar hor fun but in other states of Malaysia, we simply call it hor fun. Both names refer to the same dish and it’s usually served in soup.

That’s what RasaMalaysia said too! I think dish should be called Ipoh Hor Fun…but Chef Danhi checked with his sources and said to call it Ipoh Sar Hor Fun. ???

I’ve used your “silky chicken” poaching method for many other dishes besides this one and the chicken always turns out juicy and fabulous! Thanks for that great idea!

Jaden! I made the soup and it was soooo delicious! I have to admit that I used fresh spinach for my greens because I am a fool for spinach. But other than that I stuck to the recipe. Wasn’t easy hunting down fresh rice noodles but I finally found them (but they weren’t the wide ones
Anyway, both Bob and I loved it! The chicken was awesome. Interesting way to cook it – and you were so right about it being silky.
Wow! Just a great recipe. Thank you!!!

oh great! isn’t it the best recipe ever??? ~jaden

Flat rice noodles just make me weak in the knees. I’ve actually been to Ipoh for a week-long holiday and the Ipoh Hor Fun in Ipoh rocked. I love the “dry” version where a brown shoyu sauce is used instead of chicken broth. Shiitake mushrooms are divine when they are soaked in this sauce. Memories… I live in Japan now so such cuisine is far far away.
