Pineapple prawns Noodle Bowls

These pineapple prawn noodle bowls provide a vibrant, dairy-free dinner option that balances sweet, savoury, and spicy flavours. The combination of succulent prawns and caramelised fresh pineapple creates a tropical profile that is elevated by a punchy ginger and chilli-garlic glaze. By reducing pineapple juice into a syrupy sauce, the dish gains a deep, concentrated brightness that coats the rice noodles perfectly without the need for heavy oils or fats.

This dairy-free recipe is an excellent choice for a quick midweek meal, offering a light yet satisfying alternative to traditional takeaway. The addition of cooling cucumber, sharp red onion, and crunchy salted peanuts provides a wonderful contrast in textures. Serve these colourful bowls with a generous squeeze of fresh lime to enhance the aromatic basil and bring all the complex flavours together beautifully.

How to make Pineapple prawns Noodle Bowls

Cook rice noodles according to package directions.

Meanwhile, toss prawns and pineapple in a large bowl; season with salt. Add soy sauce and ginger and toss again to coat.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Using tongs, pluck out just the pineapple and cook, stirring often, until well browned on all sides, 5–6 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add prawns to same skillet and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until pink and opaque, 3–4 minutes. Transfer to plate with pineapple.

Cook pineapple juice and chilli-garlic sauce in same skillet over medium-high heat, scraping up browned bits with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon and stirring occasionally, until reduced by half and slightly syrupy, 12–16 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in pineapple-prawns mixture and 190g basil.

Divide rice noodles among bowls. Spoon pineapple-prawns mixture over noodles and drizzle with extra sauce. Top with cucumbers, onion, peanuts, and more basil. Serve with lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.
