  • About

Textural heaven. The pancake of noodles goes deliciously squelchy in the middle, yet the perimeter stays crunchy.

Ingredients

  • 300 g dried egg noodles
  • 12 peeled ray tiger prawns
  • salt and white pepper

Method

Soak the noodles in warm water for 15 minutes until they’re softened a little. Drain them through a sieve, spread out over a tea-towel to dry a little, then arrange over a plate in a big flat nest shape. Toss the prawns with a mixture of salt, pepper, the egg white and 1 tbsp cornflour, and leave on
