This really is so quick, easy and tasty. A great combination of peanut butter, chilli sauce and soy sauce mixed with stir fried noodles.  A few simple steps and you have a delicious dinner in 15 minutes (or less if not using meat)

A great dish for when you need dinner quickly  - I hope you enjoy! 

serves 3-4

ingredients

250g egg noodles
1 bag stir fry vegetables (I used about 400g size)
300g minced beef (but you can use pork, prawns, chicken, tofu, extra veg - it's up to you)
1 tbs oil

sauce:
3 tbs peanut butter (I like crunchy for the texture but smooth is OK)
3 tbs soya sauce
3 tbs sweet chilli sauce
6 tbs boiled water

optional sauce extras:
crushed garlic
grated ginger
lime zest

optional toppings:
sesame seeds
lime segment
chilli flakes
chopped mint/coriander
chopped peanuts
sliced spring onions

  • turn on frying pan and when hot carefully add oil and fry beef (or other ingredient of choice) for approx 10 minutes on a high heat.  Make sure meat is hot and completely cooked through. 

 

  • at the same time add noodles to a pan and carefully pour over boiled water to soften (follow packet instructions as noodles take different amounts of time).
  • drain when cooked and leave to one side
