King Prawn Singapore Noodles

You can make this King Prawn Singapore noodles recipe with or without the seafood, so it can be suitable for vegetarians or those on special diets as well as pescatarians. If you want a lip-smackingly tasty dinner on the table in 10 minutes – and you like a bit of spice – then this one’s for you. Noodles with prawns or not, the choice is yours.

I’ve used frozen King prawns, but you could use smaller ones, or omit them altogether for a tongue-tingling veggie feast. You could also throw in some extra quick-cook vegetables – like thinly sliced pepper, courgette and/or carrot – in place of the prawns. Some recipes do contain red pepper, spring onion or yellow pepper, for instance.

Traditional or takeaway style versions of this food are often made with fine vermicelli noodles, so I just use the thinnest wheat or rice noodles I can get. The straight-to-wok type are the quickest to cook. You can use light soy sauce if that’s what you have, but the flavour is not quite as rich.
