Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions and drain. Heat 1tbsp of the sesame oil in a wok on a high setting and add the chilli, garlic and ginger. Cook for 30 seconds before adding the prawns. Stir-fry the prawns until they are pink and then remove them from the wok and keep to one side.
Add the remaining 1tbsp of oil to the wok over a high heat, and add the broccoli, red pepper, sugarsnap peas, courgette, carrot and spring onion. Stir-fry for a few minutes, until the vegetables are starting to go tender but retain some crunch.
Add the rice wine or sherry, soy sauce and honey. Turn the vegetables in the wok, cooking for a minute, return the prawns to the pan and add the cooked noodles. Toss around until the noodles are heated through. Scatter on the sesame seeds and serve straight away.
