Collect together your equipment (see Recipe Notes below) and ingredients.

Please note - stir fries come together very quickly, so make sure that you have everything ready, vegetables prepared etc, before you start cooking.

First make the Chow Mein Sauce – simply measure everything into a jug or small bowl and mix thoroughly.

Now make the stir fry – Prepare the vegetables and set aside:- peel and slice the onion,- peel the carrot and slice into thin batons,- remove the stem and seeds from the red pepper/capsicum and cut into thin slices,- trim the spring onions and cut into 5cm/2in pieces,- peel and crush the cloves of garlic.

Heat oil over a moderately hot temperature and cook the onion, stirring regularly, for 1 minute.

Add the pepper slices and carrot batons and cook for a further minute.

Now add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.

Toss in the noodles, salt, pepper, chilli flakes and the Chow Mein sauce. Stir thoroughly to mix and cook for 2 minutes to heat everything up.

Finally, throw in the prawns, beansprouts and spring onion. Cook, stirring for 2 minutes or until everything is piping hot.

Serve immediately sprinkled with extra spring onion, chilli slices, chopped coriander or parsley and scatter over some sesame seeds.

Heat a wok over a high heat and add the vegetable oil and the sesame oil. Throw in the lemongrass mixture and fry briefly before adding the minced chicken and the chilli powder. Stir-fry the chicken for 4 mins then splash in the fish sauce. Turn down the heat a little and allow the chicken and fish sauce to bubble together for another 4 mins, stirring, then add the chopped red onion and cook for another min.

Miso beansprout rolls

brown basmati rice

½ tbsp finely chopped ginger

tsp rapeseed oil

yellow pepper

carrot

tsp miso paste

Boil the rice with the sliced ginger for 25 mins until tender – use just enough water so that it cooks, but it’s not swamped. Drain well and remove the ginger.

Heat 2 tsp oil in a large wok, then stir-fry the chopped ginger, pepper and garlic for about 1 min. Tip in the beansprouts, spring onions, carrots and chilli, if using, then stir-fry until the veg has softened and started to char. Remove from the heat.

Stir the miso with 2 tsp water to dilute it a little, then beat in the eggs. Heat 1 tsp oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Pour in half the egg mixture and scatter over half the rice. Allow the mixture to set to an omelette. While still a little moist, tip half of the vegetables on top and cook for a few seconds more. Carefully roll up, and repeat with the remaining egg, rice and vegetables.

Stir Fried Beef with Egg Noodles

lean beef steak beef

soy sauce

garlic cloves

ginger

salt & pepper

groundnut oil

red pepper

onions

green chilli

beansproats

egg noodles

oyster sauce

rice wine vinegar

Bring a pan of salted water to the boil for the noodles.

Place the beef into a bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, garlic, ginger and a little sesame oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper, mix well. Leave to marinade for a few minutes while you prepare the rest of the vegetables.

Heat a wok or a large frying pan until hot then add a little groundnut oil, and a touch of sesame oil, swirling the wok to coat the surface evenly. Add the beef strips and stir-fry for a couple of minutes until nicely browned. Strain into a colander and catch the juices in a bowl underneath.

Add a little more groundnut oil and sesame oil to the pan and stir-fry the pepper, chilli, and spring onions for 2-3 minutes. Add the bean sprouts and half the chopped coriander for the last 30 seconds. Remove the vegetables and transfer to the colander with the beef.

For the sauce, pour 4 tablespoons of soy sauce, the oyster sauce, rice vinegar and the reserved beef juices to the pan and allow to reduce to a syrupy glaze.

Blanch the noodles in the boiling water for about 3-4 minutes, until tender but still retaining a slight bite, then drain.

Return the beef, vegetables and noodles to the pan with the sauce to warm though and combine. Serve at once and sprinkle with the remaining coriander. Enjoy!
