  Absolutely delicious. We used rice instead of noodles which was great to absorb the delicious sauce. Will definitely make this again - it's a taste sensation!

  Good flavours, but overly complicated if you ask me. I was not put off by the long list of ingredients, but cooking the veggies and prawns separately was a faff and I thought the whole point of a stirfry was that you just bung it all in and cook together...

  This was wonderful. After prep of the veg, it took hardly any time to cook. Lots of taste and texture.

  The ingredients list says to slice 2 cloves of garlic as well as crushing one which you add to the marinade - when do you use the sliced cloves?

  Easy to make, with great tasting results. However, I would question the amount of fish sauce needed, as I only put in 1 tbsp, and still found that to be plenty.

  This has to be the very best stirfry recipe for prawns. I used cooked prawns and it worked just as well. I love the marinade with the coriander. It really adds to the flavour.

  i made this last night and it was so yummy. i made for 3 (2 adults and one child) i think i would make more for next time as it barely got us around. i did miss out a few ingreidents such as the waterchess nuts as there was none in the supermarket but added more bean sprouts to make up for it. i added more chilli (as we like things hot) and used half amount of fish sauce as we wern't too sure about it. i think it was amazing, will defo put it in my scrap book of food ideas :)

  I thought this was fantastic. All the flavours come through. It does take a while to do all the chopping but I did this ahead so that was ok. We ate this twice in 3 days we loved it so much. On the first occasion we doubled everything. Like JaneR, I ended up with the sliced garlic at the end as the method doesn't say when to add it. Would recommend this dish to anyone.

  Extremely good and well worth making but one star knocked off for over complication. Works just as well if you add prawns to stirfry, then add noodles, then add the remainder of the marinade. I then plated and added corriander leaves and a squeeze of lime. Very fresh tasting and now a firm favourite!
