directions

  • Noodles:

  • Bring 2 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Cook noodles for 2 minutes, then rinse extremely well under cold running water. (This will ensure the noodles are clean and free of the pungent dried rice flour odor.) Drain noodles in colander and spread out to dry for at least 20 minutes. The noodles will stick together, but don't be alarmed.
  • Meanwhile, heat the 2 tablespoons oil in a wok or large nonstick saucepan over moderate heat. Add garlic, shallots and chile paste and allow to sizzle until golden, about 30 seconds. Add catsup, sugar, fish sauce and salt and reduce slightly, about 1 minute. Add 2/3 cup chicken stock and reduce heat. Stirring frequently, simmer for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove 2 tablespoons of the sauce and set aside.
  • Add noodles to wok and using chopsticks, gently separate the noodles. Turn often and sauté until noodles absorb all the sauce and are cooked until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add bean sprouts, scallions and peanuts and fold into the noodles. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Prawn Broccoli Stirfry:

  • Heat the 1 tablespoon oil in another nonstick pan over moderate heat. Add yellow onion and garlic and sauté until soft and aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the prawns. Toss in pan until they turn opaque, about 2 minutes. Add broccoli, reserved sauce and the 1/3 cup chicken stock. Cover and cook until vegetables are thoroughly hot, another 2 minutes.
  • To serve, portion noodles onto individual dinner plate and top with the prawns and broccoli stir-fry. Garnish with peanuts, cilantro and lemon wedges.

  1. Loved this stir fry recipe! DH and I made this for dinner last night and I could not stop eating it. My only modification was that my peanuts were raw, unsalted versus roasted. I don't think this made too much of a difference. Also, I might increase the shrimp/broccoli mixture next time as I really liked it. Thanks so much for posting. Made for ZWT9

Hello! I have a wonderful husband and two fantastic kids. I love to read, have fun with family and friends, stay active with: running; soccer; golf; biking; hiking; and gardening. I love to travel. I'm looking forward to more international travel someday. Cooking has become a passion for me. I love to read cookbooks, watch the Food Network, and try new recipes. I have way too many cookbooks! A few of my favorites are: Barefoot Contessa (any - but especially 'Family Style'),Rachael Ray 30-Minute Meals 2, Roasting by Barbara Kafka, Beyond Parsley & The Black Dog Summer on the Vineyard Cookbook. I try to carefully choose recipes that I think my family will enjoy, which is why most of my ratings are 3-5 stars. Happy cooking!
