Combination Bird Nest

Stir Fried Noodles

Crispy deep-fried noodle nest topped with combination of chicken, beef and prawns in a savoury sauce

Product information

Ingredients

Golden crispy deep-fried egg noodles (mì chiên giòn arranged into a nest structure), tender seasoned chicken breast slices, marinated thinly sliced beef, fresh peeled prawns, broccoli florets, cauliflower pieces, sliced carrots, snow peas, minced garlic, premium oyster sauce, light soy sauce, tapioca starch thickener, a touch of sesame oil, ground white pepper, vegetable frying oil, fresh coriander sprigs, sliced fresh red chillies.

Food history

Combination Bird Nest (Mì chiên giòn thập cẩm) is a spectacular showcase of Cantonese-Vietnamese culinary craftsmanship, highly popular across the grand dining halls of Cholon (Saigon's historic Chinatown). The dish is named after its dramatic presentation, where fine egg noodles are carefully shaped and deep-fried into a crisp, intricate 'nest'. It is then piled high with a rich stir-fry of mixed proteins—chicken, beef, and prawns—and crisp market vegetables bathed in a savory, glossy gravy that slowly softens the inner noodles while leaving the outer rim perfectly crunchy.

Allergens

Contains egg and gluten (crispy egg noodles), crustacea (prawns), molluscs (oyster sauce element), and soy (soy sauce and meat marinades). Prepared in a commercial kitchen environment that also handles peanuts, sesame, and dairy.

Storage

Best enjoyed immediately while the noodle nest is perfectly crispy and the combination topping is piping hot. Due to the fried structure and thick sauce base, this item is highly prone to becoming soggy and does not store well as a leftover.

Preparation

If transportation or delay is necessary, store the fried noodle nest and the wet combination gravy in separate containers, combining them only right before consumption to maintain the signature crispy crunch.

Cooking

To reheat separate elements: Warm the combination and vegetable gravy in a saucepan over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes until boiling hot. Re-crisp the noodle nest in an oven or air fryer at 160°C for 2 to 3 minutes before combining.

Serving

Serve freshly assembled in a broad bowl or on a large plate over a light bed of lettuce. Topped beautifully with fresh coriander sprigs and red chili slices for a vibrant finish, providing a wonderful contrast of textures in every bite.
