King Prawn Pad Thai
Put our juicy king prawns to work in this classic Thai dish, full of vibrant flavours and ready in just 20 minutes.
Ingredients
- 400 g large cooked king prawns 2 packs
- 300 g dried flat rice noodles
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp hot chilli powder
- handful beansprouts
- handful chives chopped
- 2 tbsp roasted peanuts
- 1 lime cut into wedges
- 1 tbsp tamarind sauce
- 2 tbsp fish sauce

Instructions
- To make the sauce, put all the ingredients and 3 tbsp of water into a small pan. Bring to a simmer, stir for 2 minutes or until the sugar has dissolved. Leave to cool.
- Pour boiled water over the noodles, cover and leave until just softened. Then, drain and rinse under cold water, then drain again.
- Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan. Fry the shallots for 2-3 minutes or until soft and golden, then add the cooked prawns to start warming them through for another 2 minutes. Push the prawns and shallots to one side then add the egg, stirring until it has scrambled. Then, add the noodles and toss for 2 minutes. Add the sauce, chilli powder, bean sprouts and chives and cook for 30 seconds.
