- 1 teaspoon Fish sauce

Prepare all ingredients: soak the rice noodles in hot water for 5–8 minutes until softened, then drain and set aside. Julienne the cucumber, and boil the egg if not already done.

Add the fish sauce and sugar to the broth, adjusting seasoning to taste.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the shredded chicken and prawns (if using). Cook for 5 minutes or until the prawns are pink and fully cooked.
Step 6
In a serving bowl, place the drained rice noodles. Ladle the hot laksa broth over the noodles, ensuring the chicken and prawns are evenly distributed.
Step 7
Top the laksa with bean sprouts, fresh coriander, julienned cucumber, and the halved hard-boiled egg.
