Mee kolo, orkolo mee (Malay:Mi kolok;Iban:Mi Kering ormi rangkai;Chinese:哥羅麵;Jyutping:Go1 Lo4 Min6;Pe̍h-ōe-jī:Ko-lô-mī), is aSarawakian dish of drynoodles tossed in a savoury pork (or chicken, duck for ahalal version) andshallot mixture, topped off with fried onions[1] and tossed in a clear sauce.[2]
Though the two dishes are similar, the difference between kolo mee andwonton mee, the latter being popular inPeninsular Malaysia, is that kolo mee is not drenched in dark soy sauce, and water is not added to the noodles when served. Mee kolo comes in two common flavours: plain or seasoned with red sauce (fromchar siu marination). It is usually served with soup and soy sauce, to give the dish a darker appearance and enhance its saltiness.[3] It is topped withchar siu pork slices andspring onions orfried shallots.
