Srilankan Fried Noodles with Prawn

As parents we want the best for our kids whether it be education or even food…

There are times when we do take shortcuts in between our busy schedules and that’s ok…not bad parenting !!! We’ve all done this right???

In our home we don’t believe in giving our kids instant noodles all the time but we do treat them every once in a while,as kids we enjoyed it too right ?? Unhealthy Goodness in the form or Maggi or kothu mee

Anyway the kids have been requesting me to make Fried Noodles and we had only this particular pack on hand that day due to restricted supplies so we made the most of it using some fresh Veges from @sunnybees.lk . Their service is fantastic so happy I chose them

I used @ceyloncoconut.company Coconut Aminos instead of soy sauce

I didn’t add egg into the noodles I added them in seperately in the form of a thin Omlette,that’s how we enjoy it!!!

Let’s Get Started

You Will Need

  • Boiled Noodles
  • Protein of choice
  • Vegetables for stir fry
  • Sliced thin Omelette

Noodles

Noodles of choice : I used whatever I had at home, Parkview Noodles. Check instructions on the packet and cook them first.

Follow Steps to see how I did mine

Step One : Boil two litres of water for one packet

Step Two : Once this comes to a roaring boil, add in the noodles

Step Three : Let this come to a boil and keep on fire for 5 minutes

Step Four : You will notice the noodles have changed colour and they’re done

Step Five : Strain and run through a cold water tap.Drizzle some oil on top to stop them from sticking to one another and avoid clumping

Protein Of Choice : Prawns

I cleaned them and marinated with salt,kashmir chilli powder and lime juice.Then I stir fried in some oil till nice and crisp.You could steam them if you prefer..

Skip this step if you’re making a vegetarian version

Vegetables for Stir Fry

  • 1 Sliced B Onion
  • 1 Sliced Tomato
  • 3 Sliced Capsicums
  • 1 Carrot sliced julienne
  • 100g Beans Sliced
  • 100g Leeks Sliced or Spring Onion Leaves
  • 2 tbsp finely minced ginger and garlic
  • Curry Leaves, Pandan Leaves
  • 2 tbsp Chilli Paste

Thin Omelette

You could definitely scramble your eggs while stir frying the noodles but this is what we prefer because we like to bite into the egg particles while eating the noodles instead of having to pick them in between the cooked veggies

It is very easy to make : Just follow the simple steps

Step One : Beat 5 Eggs with a splash of milk.Pour a thin layer into an oiled non stick frying pan. Do not add all at once because you want thin layers

Step Two : Sprinkle seasoning of choice and cook this on low for at least five minutes or until the complete omelette is done.It is too thin to flip so don’t attempt if you’re not sure

Step Three : Transfer on to a flat plate and slice into thin strips.This can be used for rice or noodles

Comfort Food ready to be plated up
