Orange marmalade works surprisingly well with Asian-style prawns and egg noodles.

4 tablespoons orange marmalade
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
300g egg noodles
1 tablespoon peanut oil, plus 1 teaspoon to toss noodles
1 small red capsicum, thinly sliced
1 onion, thinly sliced
12 green prawns, peeled (tails intact), deveined
4 spring onions, thinly sliced on an angle
Coriander leaves, to serve

Method

1.

Combine the marmalade, soy, garlic, ginger, vinegar and sesame oil in a small bowl. Set aside.
2.

Cook noodles in boiling salted water according to instructions. Drain, toss with 1 teaspoon peanut oil and set aside.
3.

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon peanut oil in a wok or deep frypan over medium-high heat. Add capsicum and onion and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until softened. Add prawns and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until cooked through. Add sauce mixture, toss to coat prawns, then add noodles and toss for 1-2 minutes until heated through. Toss through spring onion and coriander and serve immediately.
