Claypot Yee Mee Noodles (Minced Pork) Recipe
This recipe serves 2 (two individual serving claypots). To make more, marinate more mince and increase the rest of the ingredients accordingly.
Instead of cooking each serving individually, you can also cook everything in a large pot and portion out to serving bowls.
For best results, minced pork with some fats on is the most tasty, as compared to minced lean pork without fats.
Ingredients:
- 125g minced pork (or chicken) preferably with some fats on
Ingredients for each claypot
To cook for 2 or more, prepare more servings of the following:
- 300 ml water
- half chicken stock cube (preferably MSG-free)
- 1 serving “yee mee” (yi mein/伊面) (40-80g)
- 1 Shanghai green (bok choy) 上海青 quartered lengthwise
- 3 slices carrot cut to flower shape if desired
- 1 egg
(A) Marinade
- 1/2 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp sesame oil
- 2 dashes white pepper powder
Garnishing Suggestions
- chopped spring onions
- saucer of cut chilli padi in soy sauce
You also need:
- two personal-sized claypot (or casserole)
Directions:
- Marinade the pork in seasonings (A) for at least 15 minutes in the fridge.
- Cook the dish in a personal sized claypot individually. Add water and stock cube in a personal size claypot. Bring to a boil. Then add noodles, half the mince, bok choy and carrot. Stir the pork with chopsticks so that they are evenly separated and cooked. When the pork is cooked, crack an egg while the soup is bubbling and remove from the heat. Garnish with spring onions and serve immediately in the claypot with a side saucer of chilli padi. Repeat by using up the rest of the ingredients for the second serving.
Cooking Note(s):
- If you want the egg yolk to be cooked, eat it towards the end of the meal. If you want it slightly runny, break the yolk with chopsticks while eating.
- Dish out to a bowl when serving to young children to prevent them from accidentally touching the hot claypot while eating.
- You can substitute with other vegetables such as Chinese spinach (菠菜) & choy sum (菜心).
- Instead of soup cube, you can use any home made soup stock, a mix of tetra-pak chicken stock & water or simply use water & soy sauce.

Hi, can I replace the chicken stock cube with chicken stock powder? If so, how much is needed?
Thanks!
Yes you can. Start with 1 tsp and adjust from there.
Hi, if use normal pot, it’s ok too? Lol. Cos I don’t have claypot.
Btw, I chanced upon yr website and it’s great. Haha
Yes, you can use any pot and dish it out to a bowl, just like cooking instant noodles.
