Ingredients

Dry rice noodles

240 g

Sugar snap peas

200 g, trimmed

Raw peeled prawns

600 g, peeled, tails intact

Asparagus

2 bunch(es), cut into 3cm lengths

Lime juice

¼ cup(s)

Fish sauce

2 tsp

Fresh ginger

2 tsp, finely grated

Caster sugar

2 tsp

Green shallot(s)

2 individual, thinly sliced

Fresh coriander

cup(s)

Fresh mint

¼ cup(s)

Sesame seeds

1 tbs, toasted

Instructions

  1. Cook noodles in a large saucepan of boiling salted water, following packet instructions, or until just tender. Add sugar snap peas for the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain.
  2. Meanwhile, preheat a chargrill or barbecue over high heat. Cook prawns and asparagus, turning, for 3–4 minutes or until prawns change colour and are just cooked through and asparagus is tender.
  3. Combine juice, fish sauce, ginger and sugar in a large bowl. Add noodles, sugar snap peas, prawns, asparagus, shallots, coriander and mint and toss gently to combine. Serve salad sprinkled with sesame seeds.

Notes

To toast sesame seeds, heat a small non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add seeds and cook, stirring, for 1–2 minutes or until light golden.
