Method

  1. Put the noodles into boiling water and cook until they have softened but still have bite. Toss in a little sesame oil and set aside.

  2. Heat another dash of sesame oil in a large pan or a wok until it is hot. Add the garlic, ginger and chilli to the pan. It will start to colour quite quickly so add in the strips of beef and carrot and toss them.

  3. Add in the soya sauce, hoisin sauce and stock. Serve on top the noodles. You can add a little more stock if the sauce evaporates too quickly.
