In a large pot, bring water to a rapid boil. Place the noodles in
colander or strainer and lower into the water. Parboil until noodles
look somewhat clear, until soft for instant ramen. Drain and rinse
briefly with water. Fluff the noodles with a fork and set aside to
drain some more.

Heat the water up again and cook shrimps, pork and cloud ears the
same way as noodles. Drain well. Now combine all the ingredients,
except the lettuce, together well in a large bowl. Place the lettuce
on a serving platter or plate. Spoon the salad on top and serve
immediately.
