Cooking Time: Half hour (INC prep)
Difficulty: Easy if you're organised and well prepared!
Serves: 2
• 175g 5mm flat rice noodles
• 100g raw prawn meat
• 100g BBQ roast pork (or any other cooked meat of your choice / or meat free - use tofu
• Half red capsicum (cut into strips)
• Half green capsicum (cut into strips)
• Half white onion (cut into half moons)
• 4 garlic cloves (chopped finely)
• 2 spring onions (cut into thin half moons - for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon grated palm sugar
• 1 egg (loosely scrambled in the wok / frying pan) in some canola oil - then slicing into small bite size pieces.
• 1 tablespoon Lucky Taco Habanero Hot Sauce (of a teaspoon if that’s too hot for ya)
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup chicken stock
• Juice of half a lemon
• 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1/4 cup chicken stock
• Chilli Oil (optional - but i think a heaped teaspoon added in and mixed through before serving elevates the dish
• Crispy fried noodles (optional) but do add a great texture crunched over the top
• Prepare all ingredients first so you’re well organised. It’s a fast dish to cook - so everything must be in order before your start.
• Follow the cooking instructions on the noodle packet. Usually boil for 6 - 8 mins and set aside - running under cold water afterwards. Get this ready now.
• Heat wok / frying pan over medium high heat.
• Crack the egg in a bowl and whisk with fork - adding a pinch of black pepper.
• Tip into the wok and shimmy around until it’s formed a loose scramble.
• Scoop it out onto a cutting board and slice into bite-size pieces and set aside.
• Add sesame oil to the wok.
• Add onion half moons and garlic. Keep everything moving in the wok / pan. It cooks very quickly (especially in the wok).
• Then add prawn meat & palm sugar. Mix well.
• Then add other cooked meat (or tofu). Mix well.
• Now add the capsicum. Mix.
• Now add all the sauces and 1/4 cup chicken stock (remember - this is repeated twice in the ingredients list - you need another 1/4 cup at the very end of cooking to loosen the noodle).
• Now add in the noodles & the chopped egg pieces. Mix thoroughly.
• Add in the lemon juice and chilli oil. Mix well.
• Turn off the heat.
• Add the white pepper & remain 1/4 cup chicken stock.
• TASTE TASTE TASTE! (Careful not to burn your mouth). Should be perfect - but adjust any seasoning if you need / want to.
• Divide into 2 serving bowls and scatter the spring onions and fried noodle (optional) over the top.
• Enjoyed best with an ice-cold beer. They are ‘drunken’ noodles after all...
