Noodles with prawns and pak choi
How to make noodles with prawns and pak choi recipe
Serves 4
Preparation time 5 minutes, Cooking time 12 minutes
Ingredients:
250 g (8 oz) dried medium egg noodles
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2.5 cm (1 inch) piece of fresh root ginger, peeled and finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
20 raw peeled king prawns
3 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce
2 heads of pak choi, leaves separated
4 spring onions, finely sliced
handful of fresh coriander leaves, chopped
2 tablespoons sesame oil
Method:
Cook or soak the noodles according to the packet instructions. Drain and set aside.
Heat a large frying pan and add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil. When really hot, add the noodles, flattening them down so that they cover the bottom of the pan.
Cook over a high heat for 3–4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Once they have coloured on the first side, turn the noodles over and brown on the other side. Stir in the sesame seeds.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a wok or large frying pan, add the ginger and garlic and stir-fry for 1 minute, then add the prawns and stir-fry for 2 minutes or until turning pink.
Add the soy sauce and sweet chilli sauce and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1–2 minutes or until the prawns are pink and firm. Finally, add the pak choi and stir until the leaves begin to wilt.
Place the noodles on a large plate and top with the prawns and pak choi. Sprinkle with the spring onions and coriander and drizzle with the sesame oil.
For prawn & lemon grass stir-fry, heat a little vegetable oil in a wok, add 2 finely chopped shallots, 2 finely chopped lemon grass stalks, 1 deseeded and finely chopped red chilli, 1 crushed garlic clove and a 1.5 cm (¾ inch) piece of fresh root ginger, peeled and finely chopped, and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
Add 20 raw peeled king prawns and stir-fry until pink. Add 6 tablespoons light soy sauce, 2 tablespoons sesame oil and the juice of 1 lime. Finally, add 2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh coriander.
