SG Zi Char Hokkien Mee

This dish has always been a good option on days when you don't feel like cooking much. Since it's a dish so rare for me to find at any good halal Zi Char stall, I might as well cook it my way. It's an easy one-pot meal to satisfy the hungry stomachs with all ingredients so easy to prepare :)
