Treat your ingredients with care...
- Handmade egg noodles — If you can't find handmade egg noodles, you can substitute with fresh or dried egg noodles. Cook them according to the package instructions before adding them to the dish.
- Shiitake mushrooms — Ensure the mushrooms are fresh and firm. If unavailable, you can substitute with other mushroom varieties like cremini or button mushrooms.
- Microgreens and edible flowers — Choose a variety of microgreens such as pea shoots, radish sprouts, or micro basil. Edible flowers like pansies or nasturtiums add a beautiful touch but ensure they are safe for consumption.
Tips & Tricks
- For an extra burst of flavor, marinate the chicken breast and prawns in a mixture of soy sauce, garlic, and ginger for 30 minutes before cooking.
- To add a touch of luxury, garnish the dish with a sprinkle of truffle oil or truffle shavings.
- Experiment with different vegetables like asparagus, snow peas, or baby corn to add variety and seasonal flair.
- For a spicy kick, add a dash of chili flakes or a drizzle of sriracha sauce.
- If you prefer a vegetarian version, substitute the chicken and prawns with tofu or tempeh.
