Notes:
My mom really loves this recipe. and it's actually a mix edition of Mee Rebus and Mee Udang, though i think the appropriate name is mi udang. if you don't have a satay paste, you can substitute with fried peanuts to be blended together with the prawn's head and shell. or the leftover satay gravy can also be used. jimat, heh!
