    This is a really easy but very tasty recipe - the sauce is fantastic! I actually made it with chicken. I stir fried the chicken with spring onions, garlic and ginger until browned, then added broccoli (I couldn't get mange tour) and when almost done I added the cooked noodles and the sauce. It was really yummy and such a quick after-work meal.

    Ok I confess I made this with tofu and not prawns - but this wasn't one of my better dishes. My sauce all stuck together with the noodles, leaving a clump of spicy, salty peanut-butter goo at the bottom....

    I'm a great fan of this website but didn't like this dish at all. Tasted bland and grey!

    I made this as a quick and easy dinner for me and my boyfriend and we both really liked it - he is quick fussy but said it was definitely one to repeat. You've really got to make the sauce to taste, I always think of recipes as just guides, afterall, you're the one eating it!

    Quick, easy and delicious. I quickly stirfried the veg and prawns and added the dressing for a quick heat before mixing in the noodles. Very tasty.

    This was delicious! I also stir fried veg first and used what I had - red peppers, onions, broccoli. I was hoping there would be leftovers - no chance!

    I thought this was delicous! Very hard to keep myself from scoffing the second portion as well!! I also wavered slightly from the recipe. My prawn were frozen, so I fried the chilli (and a clove of garlic) for a minute or two and then added the prawns, and then the noodles and mangetout and dressing shortly after to heat through. Lush, will definitely be making again soon!
