Prawn Noodle Soup


My Mum-in-law passed me a bag of frozen prawn last week and I thought it wasteful to throw out the nice big shells. So I decided to try cooking prawn noodle soup for the first time and use the shells as the base for making the soup stock. I found the recipe from a WEBSITE and went through the trouble of making this famous local dish from scratch. 

I guess the kids were very excited about this dish because the whole house was filled with the mouth-watering aroma while I was preparing it. They kept telling me that it smelled very nice. They behaved surprisingly well and cooperated with one another beautifully the three hours I spent in the kitchen. I'm so proud of them! 

I really love how it turned out. Also, the children enjoyed this dish very much as they all asked for second helpings. A pity I forgot to prepare the red cut chilli for the adults, otherwise, it would have been perfect.

All ready!
