Method

  1. Put the prawns in a food processor with the curry paste and 2 tbsp of the coriander. Whizz into a paste, then form into 8 cakes.
  2. Put the noodles in a bowl and pour over a kettle of boiling water. Leave until tender, drain, rinse in cold water and drain again.
  3. Fry the prawncakes for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
  4. Whisk the fish sauce, 1/2 the lime juice and sugar together until the sugar has dissolved. Toss with the noodles, chilli, spring onions and the rest of the coriander. Mix the chilli sauce with the remaining lime juice. Serve the prawncakes with the noodle salad and chilli lime sauce for dipping.

    These were so easy to make. I didn't serve them with the noodle salad though. I served them with the Nasi Goreng recipe on this site and chilli dipping sauce. A taste sensation!
