Goong Ob Woon Sen

กุ้งอบวุ้นเส้น

Medium-Mild

Goong Ob Woon Sen is a clay pot dish of prawns baked on a bed of glass noodles with ginger, celery, crispy garlic, and a savoury soy-oyster sauce — the noodles absorb the prawn juices and sauce as everything steams together.

Key Ingredients

  • prawns
  • glass noodles
  • ginger
  • Chinese celery
  • garlic
  • oyster sauce
  • dark soy sauce
  • white pepper

Where to Try It

Seafood restaurants and Chinese-Thai restaurants throughout Thailand — a staple of the Chinatown restaurant tradition.

Tips

  • The noodles at the bottom of the pot, soaked in prawn juices, are the best part — dig to the bottom.
  • Order for sharing as part of a larger meal — it pairs well with stir-fried vegetables and rice.
