Method
Soak the glass noodles in hot water for 8 minutes until soft, then drain, blanch in boiling water for 1 minute and drain again.
Thinly slice the shallots, spring onions, celery and chillies; finely chop the garlic and coriander; halve the cherry tomatoes.
Bring a saucepan of water to the boil and blanch the prawns and squid for 4 minutes, until the prawns are pink and opaque and reach 63°C on a meat thermometer and the squid is just tender, then drain.
Whisk together the lime juice, fish sauce, palm sugar and garlic in a large mixing bowl to make the dressing.
Add the noodles, warm prawns and squid, celery, cherry tomatoes, shallots and chillies to the bowl and toss well to coat.
Scatter over the spring onions and coriander and serve immediately while still warm.
