Soy and sesame prawn noodles

It was going to be a garlic, kale and prawn bucatini. Then I just needed something with soy and sesame on it, so the bucatini became fried noodles.

The story

When you were going to make a garlic, kale and prawn bucatini and ended up making fried prawn noodles using said bucatini.

Sometimes my heart wants something else, so while I plan my meals a week ahead, I might swerve the meal and make it into something that satisfies me. I just needed something with soy and sesame on it!

Method

  1. Step 1: Boil the bucatini until al dente, then cool and drain it.

  2. Step 2: Mix the noodles with dark and light soy sauce, sesame oil, a bit of brown sugar and some cooking oil.

  3. Step 3: Make a basic stir fry with the prawns and vegetables. I used courgette, carrot, peppers and coriander.

  4. Step 4: Add the dressed noodles to the stir fry and toss everything together.

Micah's verdict

Thoroughly enjoyed it too!
