Preparation:

  • Use a pestle to crush the salt and pepper in a mortar.
  • In a bowl, after peeling the prawns, add the seasoning with salt and pepper on top. Add a squeeze of lemon juice, then drizzle over the fish sauce and oil. Mix everything together with a spoon and leave to marinate.
  • In a frying pan, drizzle the sesame oil over the prawns and add a whole clove of garlic. Add the prawns, then turn them over when they are nicely coloured and remove from the heat.

Then add the oyster mushrooms and Tom Yum paste. Mix well to obtain a good compote. Add the lemon juice, fish sauce and hondashi. Add the fish stock and leave to simmer. Add the sugar, then stir in the prawns and rice noodles. Add the coconut milk and coriander and mix well.
