Hello foodies!

How are you today?
I do not feel today I passed it with extraordinary hard work. Today I am very tired from working all day to clean the house because it has been 4 days I am very lazy to hold a broom and clean the dust in my house.

Even so, today I am very excited to clean the house because for 4 days I took a break to calm my tired mind and heart.

For 4 days I felt my soul was being tossed around, my feelings were crushed for no reason, it seemed I was starting to miss the figure of my mother who had passed away for a long time. I miss her figure and also her cooking. My mother is a woman who is very good at cooking. He has an extraordinary hand expert in Indonesian specialties.

My brain digested everything about my mother including all the food she made for me. Moreover, my mother loves to serve the food that I like the most, she knows that I really like Mie Gomak.

Surely you are very familiar with this food, because this gomak noodle is only produced in Medan, North Sumatra. Mie gomak is a typical Batak food, some are made from pork and some are made from vegetables only.

However, my mother likes to modify this gomak noodle with a gravy that I think only my mother makes this dish. This time I really want to share the recipe for gomak noodles according to the recipe my mother gave me. Anyone want to try it? Let's look at the following recipe!
