Chop all the vegetables for a salad and mix with the cooked noodles. Dress and toss with half the dressing. Place on a plate.

Pan fry the tiger prawns and season with Chinese five spice, salt and pepper. Arrange the prawns and duck onto the salad garnish with orange segments and coriander. Drizzle with the remaining dressing.
