Braised Yee Mee with Chicken and Mushrooms

How to cook the crispy Yee Mee until soft?   Very easy, you just need to soak the noodles for 5-10 minutes, drained well and leave aside for 30 minutes before cooking.  Got this tip from this recipe and it works.  Most times, I will soak it with hot water, it won't be soft but no longer crispy.
If there is other ways, please share with me.  Thank you.
Believe me, this noodle aren't dry or soggy but soft.

This is a simple braised yee mee and you can add any kind of ingredients like char siew, fresh oysters, fish cakes/fish balls etc.  It is okay. I added some fresh oysters and shredded tofu puffs here.
