Ingredients
- 3 packets seaweed snacks (Roasted nori snack packets)
- 1 tbsp roasted white sesame seeds
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce (Plus extra for the pasta water)
- 1 tsp sugar
- 0.333 cup parmesan cheese (Grated)
- 1 clove garlic (Grated)
- 1 egg yolk
- prawns (Roughly chopped)
- olive oil (For cooking the prawns)
- chilli crisp (For cooking the prawns)
- salt (A pinch, for seasoning the prawns)
- pasta noodles (Your choice; cook in water with extra soy sauce)
- pasta cooking water (A big splash, reserved from cooking the pasta)
Steps
- 1
Place the seaweed snacks and roasted white sesame seeds in a blender. Blend until they become a powder; the seaweed may require several pauses or vigorous blending to reach a fine consistency.
- 2
Scrape the seaweed-sesame powder into a large bowl. Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, sugar, grated parmesan, grated garlic, and egg yolk.
- 3
Mix the nori sauce ingredients thoroughly, then set the bowl aside.
- 4
Roughly chop the prawns.
- 5
Heat olive oil and chilli crisp in a small pan.
- 6
Add the chopped prawns and cook for a few minutes, until cooked through. Remove the pan from the heat and season the prawns with a pinch of salt.
- 7
Cook the pasta noodles in water with a splash of soy sauce until al dente.
- 8
Reserve a big splash of the pasta cooking water, then transfer the cooked pasta directly into the bowl with the nori mixture.
- 9
Add the reserved pasta water and stir the pasta thoroughly with the nori mixture. Continue stirring until the egg yolk is cooked through, the parmesan has melted, and the sauce becomes glossy and cohesive.
- 10
Top the sauced pasta with the chilli prawn crumble and serve.
