Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Pull out a large frying pan, a small bowl, a sieve & a measuring jug

Get started

  • Trim and thinly slice the pak choi. Thinly slice the onion. Quarter the lime
  • Drain the prawns
  • Heat the large frying pan with 2 tsp oil on high heat. Once hot, add the prawns and onion and cook for 4 mins

Time to noodle

  • Meanwhile, add the noodles to the saucepan. Gently separate with a fork and boil for 3-4 mins, until cooked. Drain, then rinse under cold water

Add the veg

  • Add the mangetout and pak choi to the prawn pan. Cook for a further 4 mins, until the veg softens and the prawns are cooked through

Make the peanut sauce

  • In the small bowl, combine the peanut butter and 50ml hot water (25ml for 1 person) until smooth. Stir in the ginger & garlic paste, tamari, honey and the juice from half the lime and mix to combine
  • Roughly chop the coriander

Finish & plate up

  • Check your prawns are cooked through; they should be opaque, firm and steaming hot
  • Add the peanut sauce, cooked noodles and half the coriander to the prawn pan. Simmer for 1-2 mins, until thickened
  • Share the stir-fry between bowls. Sprinkle over the remaining coriander. Serve the remaining lime wedges alongside
