Preparation Switch to cook mode Step 1 Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles, stir, and bring to a boil again. Cook 10 minutes or until the noodles are al dente. Drain and mix with a little oil so the pastas don’t stick together. Set aside. Step 2 In a small bowl, mix together the sauce fish, brown sugar, lime juice, and jalapeno pepper. Step 3 In a wok or large non-stick skillet, heat 45 ml (3 tablespoons) of oil and soften the shallots and garlic in it (about 3 minutes). Step 4 Add the noodles and edamames and let simmer until hot. Incorporate the shrimps and cook until they are pinkish. Step 5 Move the noodles and shrimps to one side of the pan. Add the remaining oil on the other side.
