There’s not a lot to this Wagamama dish but that doesn't mean that it isn't delicious.

The book claims it can be made in 10 minutes but after chopping the ingredients, deveining the prawns and cooking the noodles, it takes me about 20 minutes. Still, it's quick and makes a nice, light dinner especially when combined with gyoza, miso soup or tofu.
