Spicy Broad Noodles

As usual i went to shop for grocery and i ended up at the noodles section. So i was just checking out the types of noodles available and this particular Non-fried broad noodles caught my attention. At first i thought of cookin some home made Wantan noodles with the broad noodles but without a good Char Siew in hand, it wouldn't be a complete plate of meal.

Since that was the case, i decided to stir fry it instead.

INGREDIENTS

* broad noodles
* minced garlic
* sliced onions
* prawns
* chilli paste
* shredded carrots
* chopped romaine lettuce
* pounded dried shrimps
* sesame oil & oil
* dark soy sauce
* sweet soy sauce
* oyster sauce
* salt and pepper to taste
* sugar

Method:
1) Cook the broad noodles until they are half cooked, remove and place it in a bowl of filtered water.
2) Marinate the prawns (deveined and shelled, leavin tail intact) with salt, pepper and onion powder. Heat a non-stick with a lil oil n sesame oil and fry the prawns until they turned pink and set aside.
3) Break eggs into a bowl and add a few dashes of fish sauce and pepper. Heat the non-stick pan and scramble the egg. Set aside.
4) Heat oil and sesame oil together and saute the minced garlic until fragrant and add in the pounded dried shrimps.
5) Next add in the chilli paste and stir fry further. Add onions and the shredded carrot.
6) Drain the noodles and add it in. Season with dark soy sauce, sweet soy sauce and oyster sauce.
7) Add in the prawns and eggs and stir fry further. Season with salt, sugar and pepper to taste.
8) Before serving, add in the chopped romaine lettuce and give it a last stir.

Note:
The chilli paste i used is a ready made chilli paste with tamarind juice and salt added into it. You can stir fry the chilli paste with a lil belachan stock granules /shrimp paste before hand and store it for later use in stir fry dishes or serve as a condiment with some freshly squeezed lime/calamansi juice.

You can cook the eggs and prawns together with the noodles. I chose to cook it separately to get a good results cuz i was stir fryin the noodles for 4 persons so its kinda a lot of noodles in a wok.
