    this was delicious! But I think the sauce was too thin for me. I'll cook it down longer next time. You can also go heavy on the green chillies if you want more spice

    Hey Kerry you might want to use it like you would salt - as saltiness is what the fish sauce will add to the sauce. i'd add a little, taste then see if you want to add some more.

    I needed to add green chillies and a lot more herbs for it to be flavourful

    Delicious. I made it as a hot dish rather than a salad and it worked really well. Would definitely recommend

    Steps seem to be missing, e.g when are the shallots cooked to become crispy? I was excited to make this but am now a bit perplexed.

    You can buy fried shallots, I think that's what the recipe means. I bet homemade will taste better though.

    Yummm! I also made some small tweaks. I used 2 limes (1.5 for sauce and the other half for serving), 2 tbsp Thai green curry paste to the sauce and coated the noodles with some sesame oil.

    We. loved this! I too thought that three limes in the dressing would be too much so I used the third lime to juice over the final dish. I also added the 150g of halved cherry tomatoes I had knocking around in the fridge and this added a really lovely additional dimension.

    Really fresh and easy, I used cooked prawns and rice noodles so it was even speedier

    Not a fan of this! I didn’t like the flavour of the sauce - very coconuty. I also don’t think rice noodles work very well with it

    Hey Charlotte! Thanks so much for giving this recipe a try, we're gutted it didn't hit the mark for you. You could always change the noodles if you prefer an alternative :)

    This is a great recipe overall, but three limes' worth of juice is overkill. Half of that is more than enough.

    Really fresh-tasting. Loved the raw sugar-snaps, they’re not usually my favourite, but I’ll have them again like this. I served it with crispy chilli in oil (my latest obsession) and added lots of fresh green chilli as well - yum.

    I really enjoyed this! I must admit I did make a couple of modifications though. I didn't have the chilli jam so I added some habanero hot honey instead. I also threw a clove of garlic into the blender too which was tasty! It was really refreshing with the fresh lime and crunchy sugar snaps. Will be making this again! Might have added too much chilli crisp but it's my fave!

    Good, but recipe tells us to use the coriander twice. I blended it into the dressing as directed in step 1, then it tells you to use it again later on. Also seems like too many noodles, but that’s a personal taste thing I suppose. And I honestly don’t think this is a 25 min recipe
