Prawn chow mein

Name: Prawn chow mein
Prep time: 30 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 40 min
Yield: 2
Ingredients: 2 tbsp Light soy sauce; 1 tbsp sesame oil; 1 tbsp rice wine; 2 tbsp cornflour; 2 tbsp vegetable oil; 200 g raw (or cooked) prawns; 300 g fresh egg noodles; 3 spring onions, trimmed and sliced; 300 g beansprouts; 3 tbsp dark soy sauce; 1 tbsp sesame oil; 100 g basil, finely chopped

Featuring fragrant, juicy prawns sitting pretty in a tangle of gleaming fresh egg noodles, with beansprouts for crunch and soy and sesame sauces providing plenty of flavour, this chow mein recipe is a standout version of the takeaway classic. The perfect midweek meal, it also looks and tastes special enough for a Friday night feast – serve as is or accompanied by leafy greens (think spinach and pak choy) stir-fried with ginger, garlic and soy sauce. Take care not to overcook the prawns, or they’ll go tough. When you first cook them, do so over a high heat for 3 minutes, until pink.
