Sometimes you have those recipes that you just know you’re going to love. I feel like these noodles will be that recipe for many of you. Creamy Alfredo udon mixed with spicy, buttery prawns, it’s a combo we all can love. 

Simple, but wow, so good.

First things first, you (of course) need udon noodles. You can pick them up from the Asian section at your local grocery store. Boil them just like you would pasta – delish!

While the noodles boil, saute the prawns in butter, garlic and paprika. Then to make the sauce add a splash of wine and some heavy cream. Don’t forget to season with salt and pepper!

By the time the noodles are done boiling, the sauce should be ready. All you need to do is marry the two together and dinner is done.

For the final touches, stir through a squeeze of lemon and some grated parmesan. Garnish with fresh parsley and voila!

Yep, it’s that simple and that easy.

This recipe is all about the creamy sauce and those spicy, garlicky prawns. The sauce is buttery, a touch zesty, and so creamy. And those prawns … a game-changer. So tender and delicious.

It’s one of those dinners that feels like a dish you’d order at a restaurant… but made at home and even more delicious. Trust me.
