Steps

1
Soak the noodles in just-boiled water for 8–10 minutes, until glassy and pliable. Drain and cut them into shorter lengths with kitchen scissors.
2
Bring a small pan of water to the boil and poach the prawns for 1–2 minutes, until pink, then lift them out. Add the pork to the same water, break it up with a fork and cook for 2–3 minutes, until no longer pink, then drain.
3
Pound the garlic and chillies to a rough paste in a mortar, then stir in the sugar, fish sauce and lime juice until the sugar dissolves.
4
Toss the still-warm noodles, pork and prawns with the dressing. Warm noodles soak up the dressing; cold ones only get coated by it.
5
Add the shallots, tomatoes, celery, spring onions and coriander and toss again. Taste: it should be sour first, then salty, then hot.
6
Pile onto plates, scatter with the peanuts and serve straight away.
