STIR-FRY PRAWNS / SHRIMPS WITH VEGETABLES AND FRESH THAI NOODLES



Stir-Fry Prawns / Shrimps With Vegetables and Fresh Thai Noodles image

This recipe started off as a chicken salad but I wanted something warmer and I had raw green prawns at home so it ended off as a stir-fry. For the noodles I used Fresh Thai Noodles which are yellow in colour and flat, I purchase them in the fridge section of the supermarket. I ate the stir-fry the next day for lunch and the flavours really enhanced. Enjoy
