Baked Prawns with Glass Noodles
(Goong Ob Woonsen)

Large prawns baked on a bed of glass noodles that have soaked up a rich, slightly sticky sauce of oyster sauce, sesame oil, garlic and ginger — often finished tableside in a clay pot still hissing from the oven. The noodles at the bottom, caramelised and slightly stuck, are the prize. Fight your dining companions for them without shame. This dish belongs to the slower, more generous end of Thai seafood — sit down for it.
