This is Peter my husband’s favourite stir-fry dish and although I’m vegan, I like to share all the family’s recipes here to reflect their own tastes and diets.
I like to enjoy the veggie base with tofu. The sauce is flavoursome and I know you will enjoy it. My kids eats this without the chilli.
Ingredients:
- 3 tbsp mild olive oil/ sunflower oil
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled, finely chopped
- 1 white onion, chopped
- 1 courgette, sliced
- 1 red chilli, chopped
- 2 spring onions, chopped
- 1 small piece fresh ginger, peeled, grated or finely chopped
- 150g/3½ oz raw king prawns (grey), heads and shells removed, de-veined
- 250g/9 oz rice noodles
- 3 tbsp rice vinegar, or mirin
- 3 tbsp sesame oil
- 3 tbsp dark soy sauce
To serve:
- fresh coriander, chopped
- Handful of toasted sesame seeds
- Dash of soya sauce and sesame oil to taste
Method:
Heat the oil in a wok on a high heat. Add the garlic, onion, ginger, chilli, spring onions and courgettes. Fry until golden brown then add the prawns.
In another pan, boil the rice noodles for 1-2 minutes until soft. Drain and leave covered to keep warm.
In a bowl, mix together the sesame oil, soy sauce and mirin. Pour over the prawns and vegetables, covering then and fry for 2 minutes.
Place the noodles into a bowl and cover with the prawn mixture.
Sprinkle the coriander and sesame seeds and add more soya sauce and sesame oil to taste.
Enjoy.

I love prawn dishes – did one myself for this link up. This dish looks really nice and I’m with you – I like a bit of a kick to my food!
Rachael A recently posted…Healthy Weekday Meal #12………Coconut Salmon Zoodles
Absolutely, I’m a bit obsessed with chilli!
YUM! looks delicious. I would need to find a substitute for the soy sauce as my 9 month eats with us now and I have to watch the salt levels. Any ideas? Thanks for hosting 🙂
Oh yes, you must, I actually don’t put as much in when making it for the kids (should add that in the recipe), I would omit if your baby is 9 months, sure he would like it without. If he can eat sesame oil, add that with a little boiling water.
Thank you!
🙂
Oh my goodness those prawns look so juicy and delicious! Love a good stir fry, so healthy and it actually fills you up! All of your five a day in one meal too! x

Wow! That looks delicious! I do love a good stir fry, especially with king prawns, yum!
Hannah Hossack-Lodge recently posted…Muesli Bread
Thanks Hannah, delicious huh!
I love prawns but we don’t have them very much as Jon’s not a fan. I guess the beauty of stir fry is that it’s best made in smaller batches, so maybe I’ll make prawn for me and chicken for him.
