Mee Rebus (Malaysian Noodles in Gravy)
Yellow egg noodles in a thick, sweet potato-thickened gravy with hard-boiled egg, tofu, and lime.
Why It Works
Mashed sweet potato thickens the gravy naturally while adding sweetness; the combination of dried shrimp and bean paste creates a uniquely savory-sweet base.
