Singapore King Prawn Chow Mein

This dish still makes me chuckle when I think about cooking it. On a busy night there would be three of us cooking in the kitchen, all standing in a row in front of the Chinese range, which basically was 5 flame throwing holes with woks sitting on the top. Because of the sheer heat these cookers would produce as soon as we added the dried chillies and the curry powder the air would instantly fill with hot spices, making it virtually impossible to breath. All three of us would be coughing, sneezing and choking on the fumes. Good Times!
