Cooking Instructions

  1. Combine the prawns in a bowl with 1 teaspoon of canola oil and 1 teaspoon of fish sauce, mix well and place in the fridge.
  2. Place the noodles in a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Allow to stand for 5 minutes, then drain in a colander and rinse with cold running water. Drain until dry, then cut the noodles in half with a pair of scissors.
  3. Mix the garlic in a small bowl with the soya sauce, white pepper, sugar and the remaining fish sauce. Mix well and set aside.
  4. Heat 1 teaspoon of canola oil in a wok over a high heat until smoking. Add the eggs and cook undisturbed for 10 seconds, then gently move the eggs with a spatula until they start to firm up. Break the eggs into small pieces, and set aside in a large bowl.
  5. Wipe the wok clean and return it to a high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of oil, heat until smoking, then add the prawns and stir-fry for 30 seconds.
  6. Add the smoked ham and onion and stir-fry for another 30 seconds.
  7. Add the red pepper, mange tout and curry powder, and stir-fry for another 30 seconds, then add the carrots.
  8. Empty the wok’s contents into the bowl with the egg and wipe the wok clean.
  9. Heat the 2 tablespoons of canola oil over a high heat until smoking. Add the noodles and stir-fry for 30 seconds, then add the garlic soya sauce mixture and the remaining curry powder, and stir until the powder is evenly distributed.
  10. Return the egg, prawns, smoked ham and vegetables to the wok and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until everything is combined.
  11. Remove from the heat, add the spring onions and drizzle with sesame oil.
  12. Mix well and transfer to a large, warmed bowl to serve.
