This is just a simple dish suitable for breakfast or maybe small gathering.
I guess the shrimp will make the taste sweeter and the egg is just complement the mamak style taste. I prefer to use the small red onions rather than using a big onions, plus i use ‘batu lesung’ instead of blender to all of the ingredients, so you can get the slightly chunky small onions which gonna make the ingredients tastier.

1 packet of Yellow Mee
2-3 tbs of oil
7-8 cloves of Rose Onions / Small Onions (pounded)
3-4 cloves of Garlic (pounded)

The secret of this cake is the mayonnaise, that’s what makes it moist and the ‘just nice’ taste which is not too sweet and not too buttery.
