It’s hard not to express my love for noodles every time I make a recipe with noodles. Spicy Prawns Stir-fry Rice Noodles is a perfect comfort meal that is packed with amazing flavors and good goodies. It has healthy greens and large mouthful of shrimp. It is so satisfying and comforting. I love to make this for an easy weeknight meal or a weekend lunch.
By using different kinds of vegetables, I love how colourful this dish looks. For example, I use Onion (white), cabbage (green or yellow), carrot (orange), and green onions (green). The recipe is also simple and easy to make. Besides Shrimp, I also made a Sichuan style rice noodles with Pork. You can find the recipe here.
