TIP - Poach the prawns separately and add the stock to the main Laksa broth.
TIP - Fry the omelette with a pinch of salt NOT soy sauce cause that makes the eggs looks dirty brown.
TIP - Blanch the beansprouts but don't overcooked (soggy).
TIP - Calamansi lime is a must. (If you can't get it normal lime will have to do but I bought mine from Malaysia and freeze in my freezer).
TIP - Let your guests top up with more or less of the toppings like coriander and sambal as some don't like coriander and some can't take too spicy.
