I do love the combination of Prawns, Egg and Iceberg Lettuce. I often use them for Fried Rice and Stir-fries. They are great for Soups as well. You may be surprised to hear cooking Iceberg Lettuce, but Iceberg Lettuce is actually good for cooking as it retains the crispiness after being cooked. This is another very simple Udon dish. Absolutely easy to cook, nutritious and very comforting.
