Method

1. Cook the noodles for 4 minutes, or according to packet instructions, then drain well.

2. Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan and stir-fry the garlic, coriander or parsley, salad onion slices and chilli for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and prawns and stir-fry for a further 1 minute.

3. Stir in 120ml water, the oyster sauce, lime juice and sugar; cook briefly to heat through and reduce slightly. Stir in the noodles and bean sprouts and heat through. Garnish with a sprinkling of coriander or parsley, toss and serve. May I recommend chopsticks?
