Instructions and steps: 

Step 1 Cook noodles according to packet instructions. Drain, refresh in cold water, drain again and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, lime juice, fish sauce and 2 tablespoons water.

Step 2 Spray a wok or large frying pan with oil. Add garlic and chilli and stir-fry over high heat for 20 seconds. Add prawns, all the vegies and a splash of water and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Remove from pan and lower heat to medium.
