    Heck yeahhh!!! My #1 all time favourite dish! It's so hard to find outside of Singapore/Malaysia. If ever I find a place that sells it, using real prawn shell stock, I always rush for it. Double-bonus if they have little crispy bits of lard! Protip: If yours is served with half a hard-boiled egg, scoop out the yolk and stir it into the soup to enrich it.
    How can you tell if a restaurant makes real prawn stock? You can smell it from down the street. GET STUCK IN!

      You should try the Prawn Mee served via a truck stall near the wet market in S.E.A. Park Petaling Jaya, Malaysia.If you are more adventurous, try the Prawn Mee Cham( mix) with Assam Laksa..to die for..this lady started the biz with hef late husband and got both children through to University in Australia..a legend as far as Prawn Mee/ Assam Laksa is concerned

    Speaking of shrimp, when I was at Uni, I was a regular plasma donor. After that day's donation and I got paid, I would go to a local Chinese buffet where they had whole steamed and seasoned shrimp. I would always eat the shrimp whole and get lots of weird looks, cause in America people don't really do that. Of course the shrimp were a little bigger than sakura shrimp, so they were real easy to eat.

    Personally, I cannot eat prawn mee without sambal belacan. Sambal belacan in the base soup gives it the much needed body, enhacing the fragrance dramatically.

    This style of Prawn Mee is not from Singapore, it's originated from Penang, Malaysia though...Singapore Prawn Mee is what they call Hokkien Mee. BTW, you are suppose to blend the prawn shells after you have fried it in oil and cook into the soup 😊
