Lobster
Noodles
Saw that the lobster tails were on special at the local supermarket. Bought 4. I didn’t weigh them though. This is a fairly easy recipe and a wok is not a must but recommended.
We really
enjoyed this dish. The sauce is crucial and it was so good.
What you will need:
About 400
grams egg/Hokkien noodles (Cooked weight)
5 stalks spring onion cut to 2 inch lengths
6-8 garlic cloves chopped
1 inch knob of ginger sliced
half a yellow onion sliced
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 teaspoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/3 cup shaoxing wine
1 cup lobster stock (made with reserved tail shells)
Split the
lobster tails lengthwise down the middle.
Remove the meat. Reserve the shells
Cut the
meat in to 1 inch chunks. Season with a pinch of salt and set aside in the
fridge until ready to fry.
Lobster

Boil shells with some garlic and a quarter of the spring onion

tablespoons cooking oil in a wok.
Fry onions and noodles in a hot wok with some oil until some charring is present on the noodles. Add a splash of soy sauce

100 grams
