Singapore rice noodles.

Make a 2- or 3-egg omelette with no flavourings other than sesame oil
Slice the omelette into strips
Blend 3 teaspoons of Indian Chef curry powder with a mixture of sesame and groundnut oils
Heat some mixed chill-infused and garlic-infused oils in a wok until very hot
Remove from the heat and add the curry paste
Return to the heat and stir non-stop until the right smell can be detected
Add pre-prepared juliennes of spring onion, green pepper, red pepper, yellow pepper, ginger and chillies (3 green)
Stir continually until starting to soften
Add two teaspoons Knorr Chinese chicken stock powder
Stir well in
Add 1 pack Mr Waitrose straight-to-wok rice vermicelli
Stir, lift, turn and mix well
Add the omelette strips
Add prawns
Stir, lift, turn and mix well
Remove from the heat and allow the prawns to warm through
Serve and enjoy.

** Phil.

Hadn't had Scotty's Cantonese sauce for a while so made a Crispy Shredded Chicken Cantonese with Egg-Fried Rice. Lovely as always :)

It looks fine, laddie, but your rice would look more like rice and less like gentles if you kept your images to 720px !

Gentles. It's been a few years since they were called that!

So what are they called now, Mike ?  I never knew why they were called "gentles" in the first place [1], but that was the expression I knew in my teens and therefore the expression I still use today (in my near-70's) !

[1] But now I do  :)  The OED says :
Quote
3. A maggot, the larva of the flesh-fly or bluebottle, employed as bait by anglers. (Cf. A. 5.)
and gives the first attested usage as being 1578 :
Quote
1578   H. Lyte tr. R. Dodoens Niewe Herball vi. lxviii. 746   A white worme lyke a gentill.
A.5 says (of gentle, vb.)

Here we have jugged rabbit/rabbit stew I've enjoyed eating this all my life my mother
Used to cook this my older brother would catch the rabbits ! I will add further images when served tomorrow with Yorkshire pudding etc.

Updated the rabbit was very flavoursome I only added a small amount of bisto like you say Phil adding oxo etc is not always needed.

I usually have 4 peices of Yorkshire puddings with the gravy only just to get started
