1 whole big tomato, crushed
about 5 pcs. Green chili
2 stalks of lemon grass
2 stalks of spring onions
dash of pepper
pinch of salt
1 cup of water

All you have to do is combine them all together, simmer under low fire, just let it boil for 2-3 minutes, overcooking would make the shell meat difficult to pin out.

Let it cool for a while, start the pinning out job, the part I love doing, I normally use a big safety pin to cull out the meat …. Best eaten with bare hands and a ‘mangkok’ on the side with its soup, sip it with sound and an aaaaaaahhhh as the punctuation.
