Chilli Prawn Noodles Ingredients Overview
This chilli garlic prawn noodles require just a handful of ingredients, all of which are very easily available both at stores and online. I have used hakka noodles and frozen prawns for this recipe, but you could opt for fresh prawns if you so prefer. This recipe also uses ketchup, soy sauce, chilli oil, and oyster sauce for lots of flavor and spice, along with veggies like cabbage, garlic, and spring onions (both whites and greens) for flavor and aroma.
Richa’s Top Tips
I prefer to use small/medium-sized prawns for this recipe. While any size of prawns would work, I would recommend staying away from king or tiger prawn. If you are using frozen prawns, it’s important to defrost them properly. Check out this article to learn about all the different ways to defrost prawns safely. Make sure to boil the noodles for a minute less than what’s mentioned on the package to prevent them being overcooked and clumpy as they will look along with the prawns and sauces. Make sure to keep everything ready before you start cooking as this dish goes very fast once it’s on the stove.
I made these chilli prawn noodles for a dinner I was hosting for my friends last week and it turned out to be such a hit with everyone! And I learnt these noodles disappear VERY quickly, so be sure to make a large batch. If you make this recipe, be sure to leave me a comment and send me pictures over on my Instagram at my_foodstory.
