Ingredients
- 6 oz noodles (we’ve used ramen, wide rice noodles and ‘generic’ noodles. All worked great, just check they don’t include egg if you’re vegan, 6oz = 160g)
- 2 tsp ginger, fresh (diced)
- 4 tbsp peanut oil (or untoasted sesame oil)
- 2 medium onion
- 1 bell pepper, red (and sweet, if available)
- 1 carrot
- 1 big handful spinach
- 5 baby corns
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp vinegar (regular is fine, or if you have red wine, rice or sherry vinegar, use that)
- 1 tsp hot sauce (double the amount if you like it spicy)
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
Optional
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds (to garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the noodles according to packet instructions then leave to the side.
- Dice the ginger and get it frying in half the peanut or sesame oil. A wok or wide frying pan is helpful.
- Dice the bell pepper and onions and throw them in next. Add the spinach too.
- Slice the carrot thinly and add it about five minutes after the peppers and onion.
- Roughly chop the baby corns and throw them in too. Give everything another couple of minutes frying at a med-high heat.
- Add the rest of the oil, soy sauce, vinegar, sriracha and maple syrup. Mix in the noodles and give it a good stir.
- If using, sprinkle over the sesame seeds to garnish. Done!
