Bring two cups of water to the boil and cook shells until they turn pink. Remove. Add pork or chicken meat to the same pot. Remove after about 10 minutes. When cool, shred meat. Reserve this tock. Wash and cut mustard greens into 5-cm lengths. Heat oil in a wok, large enough to accommodate the noodles. When hot, sauté garlic and shallots until fragrant. Add prawns and shredded meat.
