Sesame Tiger Prawns with Fragrant Courgette Noodles
Sesame Tiger Prawns with Fragrant Courgette Noodles
Serves 4
Preparation: 45 minutes
Cooking Time: 12 minutes
I started off by finding the basic Guest Recipe from The Hairy Bikers and loved the flavours.
However, I have decided that next time, we would once again buy raw Tiger Prawns still in their shells, which will need to be partially shelled, de-veined but leaving the tails on for frying separately rolled in Sesame Seeds for extra crispiness, punch and presentation!
This is a very fragrant and tasty stir fry, a little fiddly to prepare and if no distractions, can be prepared rather quicker!! We cannot wait to have this again!
Ingredients
For the prawns
24 raw tiger prawns (shell, de-vein, but leave the tails)
3 tablespoons of mustard
100g sesame seeds
1-2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
For the Marinade
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 small red chilli, de-seeded and finely chopped
1 lemon grass stalk, finely chopped (or you could use two!)
Juice and finely grated zest of one lime
Generous thumb sized chunk of fresh ginger, grated (I left peel on!)
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon of caster or coconut sugar
For the vegetables
2 large courgettes, spiralise into large tagliatelle strips (or use a vegetable peeler, discard the core)
1 Spanish onion, sliced into slim wedges
1 red bell pepper, sliced into strips
2 medium sized carrots, cut into matchsticks
2 handfuls of either french green or black beans, cut in half on the diagonal, or Runner beans cut diagonally
One pack of baby sweetcorn, cut in half
2 tablespoons of Tamari Sauce
1-2 tablespoons of toasted sesame oil
225g tin of bamboo shoots
One pack of bean sprouts
Small bunch of coriander leaves, stems and leaves separated.
AND THIS IS WHAT YOU DO.....
