Kai Sing Ming - my mother called it.I've never made it since I've left home - and have no intention of doing so either.It was all the rage back then late 60's early 70's.

Brown mince and onion in oil. Add water, rice and seasonings. Simmer 45 mins. Add veges (shredded cabbage included) and stock, and boil quickly till cooked. Add pre-cooked noodles.
Thanks everyone.We had it as kids and I am keen to try it again - yum!

I think the Asian name for it is Ki Si Min, WITHOUT tomato sauce or worchestershire ERK. But I do put a tin of tomato's, fresh grated ginger, garlic, a dash of chilli, and 1 tlbsp of oyster sauce with it.
Kai (Maori for food) si min is our kiwi name for it. Anyway, my whole family love it, its a easy as 1 pot wonder and inexpensive. Yum Kai pai
