Sharing my latest obsession… delicious, Asian-inspired curry noodles! These make the perfect quick dinner for the family, or if you’re looking to spice up your weekly lunches with something nutritious and so satiating.
This version is brimming with cruciferous veggies and crunchy, antioxidant-rich capsicum alongside prawns. If you’re not a seafood lover, you can swap out the prawns for tofu, or any protein of your choice.
Garnish generously with chilli (or my favourite, Krunchili) and fresh, tangy lime juice.
