For this dish we paid $10.99 for 500g of frozen prawns from the supermarket and $2 for the cabbage at a weekend market.

2 tbsp	Butter
500 g	King prawns, tails, defrosted and cleaned
3 tbsp	Sweet chilli sauce
1 packet	Instant noodles
5 tbsp	Mixed seeds, (sunflower, pumpkin, sesame, lineseed-whatever you have)
¼	Green cabbage, small, core removed and cabbage very finely sliced
4	Spring onions
1	Carrot, medium-sized, grated
1 handful	Fresh mint, and coriander

¾ cup	Mixed salad leaves, salad
4 tbsp	Sugar
5 tbsp	White vinegar, or lime juice
2 tsp	Fresh ginger, grated
1 tsp	Salt
1 tsp	Ground pepper
1	Red chilli, seeds removed, flesh finely diced

To make the dressing, place the ingredients in a jar, screw on the lid and shake to combine.
Heat the oil in a frying pan, then add the prawns. Cover and cook for several minutes until the prawns are pink in colour, then remove from the heat and stir in the sweet chilli sauce.
Heat a frying pan, then crumble the packet of instant noodles into the pan and lightly toast until they begin to colour. Tip into a salad bowl, then add the seeds to the pan and toast for 2 minutes before adding to the bowl.
Add the remaining salad ingredients and the dressing to the bowl, and toss well. 5. Serve the salad topped with the warm prawns and some of their juices, garnished with any leftover fresh coriander and chilli (if you like your food a little hotter).
