What drives the calories

  • Fried anchovies (ikan bilis) and fried shallots on top add fat.
  • The noodles are made from wheat flour and give most of the carbs.
  • Chilli pan mee is served dry with a spoon of chilli oil, so it has more fat than the soup version.

How to make it lighter

  • Choose the soup version instead of chilli pan mee.
  • Ask for less fried anchovies and fried shallots, or have them on the side.
  • Ask for more greens, and leave some of the soup to cut sodium.
