Instructions

To make the sauce

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the palm sugar and white sugar and cook until it turns a light caramel color.
  2. Add the minced garlic and onion. Stir through the sugar. Cook for a few seconds or until the sugar has become as lightly darker color.
  3. Add the soybean paste, fish sauce and the tamarind. Stir through the mixture.
  4. Allow the mixture to simmer for 1minute.
  5. Add the water and chilli powder. Stir through and then remove from the heat. Set aside.

For the noodles

  1. Soak the rice noodles in cold water for 5 to 10 minutes, or until just slightly firm in the centre. Drain the noodles and set aside.
  2. In a large fry pan or wok, heat 2tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium to high heat. Place the prawns in the pan and stir fry for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the noodles and sauce mixture. Stir through until mixed well.
  4. Move all the noodle mixture to one side of the pan. In the empty side of the pan, add the extra teaspoon of oil. Pour the eggs and cook into a thin omelette. When the egg is nearly cooked, gently break it up and mix it through the noodles.
  5. Add the bean sprouts and spring onions to the pan and mix through until combined.
  6. Serve with some spring onion, a lime wedge, or garnish with fresh coriander (cilantro).
