In this recipe, you’ll combine two very different, but very famous ingredients, lemongrass and soba noodles. Lemongrass is an ancient herb from Southeast Asia that has been used for centuries in cooking, medicine and household use (it’s also a great mosquito replant). Soba noodles originate from Japan, but ours are made in Australia using Australian organic buckwheat. Share the moment #youplateit with us on Instagram and Facebook - we love to share your triumph.

Get startedPrepare Ingredients:
Heat a large pot of water to boiling on high. Wash the fresh produce. Pat dry prawns with a paper towel, removing tails if desired. Chop the Chinese broccoli into bite-sized pieces. De-string snow peas and cut in half on a slight angle. Slice the spring onions, separating the white bottoms and green tops. Peel and mince the garlic and ginger. (NOTE: We had a suggestion from a customer to add in some more greens on this recipe, so we listened. That's why you don't see any snow peas in the pic ;) )
Cook Soba Noodles:
Add the soba noodles to the boiling water. Cook about 4 minutes, or until tender. Drain thoroughly.
Cook Prawn:
While the soba noodles cook, heat some oil in a large pan on medium- high until hot. Add the garlic, lemongrass, ginger, prawns, and white parts of the spring onions. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, stirring until the prawns are pink.
Add Vegetables:
Add the Chinese broccoli and snow peas, cook for 1 minute, or until bright green. Remove from the heat.
Add Soba Noodles:
Add the drained soba noodles and oyster & soy sauce. Stir about 1 minute to coat everything in the sauce.
