🧂 Ingredientes

- 4 strips Thick-cut bacon
- 30 g Fresh ginger
- 4-5 roots Coriander roots
- 4 cloves Garlic

👨🍳 Instrucciones

Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and water (or broth). Set aside.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 2
Prepare the aromatics: In a medium bowl, combine the soaked and drained glass noodles, sliced ginger, smashed coriander roots, minced garlic, and ground white peppercorns (if using). Pour about half of the prepared sauce over the noodle mixture and toss gently to coat evenly. Let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
⏱️ 15 minutes (includes marinating time) - 3
Assemble the clay pot: Place the marinated noodle mixture into the bottom of a clay pot (or a heavy-bottomed oven-safe pot or Dutch oven). Layer the cut bacon pieces evenly over the noodles.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 4
Arrange the prawns: Place the prepared prawns on top of the bacon and noodles. Drizzle the remaining sauce over the prawns and noodles.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 5
Bake the dish: Cover the clay pot tightly with its lid (or foil if using a Dutch oven). Place in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F). Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the prawns are opaque and pink, and the noodles are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid. The bacon should be cooked through and slightly crispy.
⏱️ 20-25 minutes - 6
Garnish and serve: Carefully remove the clay pot from the oven. Remove the lid (be cautious of steam). Garnish generously with chopped scallions and cilantro. Serve immediately, directly from the clay pot.
