Add the glue to an expansive shallow container and cook for a couple of minutes to discharge the smells, blending oftentimes. Generally pulverize some coriander seeds with a pestle and mortar and add to the glue with a squeeze or two of turmeric and the vegetable stock and stew for a couple of minutes.

In the interim, spill some bubbling water over the rice noodles in a dish and let them sit until they have mellowed, around 4-5 minutes, then empty and put aside.

To mollify the high temperature of the sauce, add the coconut milk to the skillet and bring once more to the bubble. Decrease the high temperature and stew for a couple of minutes while you devein the prawns by curtailing of the prawn with a little sharp blade and uprooting the dark "string" utilizing the purpose of the blade. Add the prawns to the dish and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until pink and delicate, completing off with sprinkles of Thai fish sauce, to taste, and more cleaved new coriander, to your taste.

To serve, partition the emptied noodles between two astonishes and scoop the sweet-smelling soup with the prawns and serve straightaway. Chicken, scallops or mushrooms are an extraordinary option to the prawns.
