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.

  1. Make the veg noodles. Peel the carrot and cucumber into ribbons. Slice the ribbons into long, thin strips (or use a julienne peeler or spiralizer if you have one). Roughly chop the coriander. Quarter the lime.
  2. Transfer the veg noodles to a large bowl. Add 1 tbsp oil, juice from 2 lime wedges, half the coriander and half the harissa mango dressing. Season with sea salt and black pepper and mix.
  3. Finely chop or crush the garlic. Finely dice the chilli (remove the seeds for less heat). Cut the pak choi into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Add the sesame seeds and toast for 2-3 mins, until golden. Remove and set aside.
  5. Reheat the pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Add the prawns, season with sea salt and cook for 3 mins. Add the garlic, chilli (to taste) and pak choi. Cook for 2-3 mins, until the prawns are cooked and pak choi soft. Add the quinoa, a splash of water and the remaining coriander. Stir for 1 min, until heated through.
  6. Serve the prawn and quinoa with the veg noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds, remaining lime wedges and harissa mango dressing.
