Cooking Steps

Get Started
1
  • Boil a full kettle. Drain the prawns.
  • Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat.
  • Once hot, fry the prawns and pepper, 5-6 mins. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw prawns. Cook so they're opaque in the middle.
Boil Noodles
2
  • Meanwhile, trim the pak choi. Separate the leaves. Cut any larger leaves in half lengthways down the middle.
  • Cut the lime into wedges.
  • Pour the boiled water into a medium saucepan with ½ tsp salt. Bring to the boil.
  • Add the noodles. Cook, 4 mins. Once cooked, drain in a sieve and run under cold water to stop them sticking together.

  • Once the prawns are cooked, crumble in the creamed coconut.
  • Add the red Thai style paste, soy sauce, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both). Bring to a boil.
  • Add the pak choi. Simmer, 2-3 mins.
  • Once cooked, add the noodles. Stir to combine.
  • Add in a good squeeze of lime. Season with salt and pepper and mix.
