pages 126-127: Balinese fried noodles

 

 ingredients:

fresh wheat noodles, cooking oil, eggs to make omelette,

sliced onions, prawns peeled and deveined,

cabbage shredded, carrot cut into stripes.

spice paste:

(to be blended after sauteing - but I skipped this step as 

the ingredients were chopped rather fine; and I mashed up the

tomatoes with back of wooden spoon)

ripe tomatoes - skinned and roughly chopped

cooking oil, shallots peeled and thinly sliced

garlic peeled and sliced

fresh red chili seeded and coarsely chopped

ginger slices, lemon grass finely sliced

water, sugar, salt, sweet dark soy sauce

garnish:

fried shallots, lime wedges

This was delicious!
