Hong Kong prawn wontons with egg noodles

Wonton noodles are the flagship of Hong Kong noodle cooking: gossamer-thin egg noodles with plump prawn wontons in a clear broth.

The broth is traditionally simmered from dried flatfish and prawn shells; the noodles stay springy while the wontons nearly melt on the tongue.
