Note

For best results, ensure the seafood is fresh and cleaned thoroughly before boiling.

The sambal belachan can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.

If fresh prawn shells are unavailable, you can substitute with store-bought seafood stock, though the flavor will be less intense.

Serve immediately while hot to enjoy the best texture of the noodles and seafood.
