Mee kolo is distinguished from other Asian noodle dish recipes. The difference between Kolok Mee and Wantan Mee, which is popular in the Peninsula 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 (red sauce from pork char siew marination. Mee kolo usually served with soup and soy sauce, to give the dish a darker appearance and enhance its saltiness.[3] Mee kolo noodles are springier than wantan noodles and they come with a generous filling of minced meat. The mee kolo is topped with spring onion and fried onion, giving the dish a sweet crunchiness. This dish is often also served with slices of char siew, which are placed on top of the noodles.
