Ingredients
- Chilli Powder: 1/4 tsp chilli powder
- Beef: 250g lean minced beef
- Garlic Clove: 3 garlic cloves, finely grated
- Red Chilli: red chilli, deseeded and shredded to serve (optional)
- Sesame Oil: sesame oil, to serve

- Ginger: thumb-sized piece ginger, finely grated
- Beef Stock: 400ml beef stock
- Five Spice: 1 heaped tsp five-spice powder
- Light Soy Sauce: 3 tbsp light soy sauce, or more to taste
- Mangetout: 225g pack mangetout or sugar snap peas
Directions
- Heat a large non-stick frying pan or wok, then fry the beef for 10 mins until very well browned. Don't add any oil. Meanwhile, boil the noodles following pack instructions, then drain.
- Add the ginger, garlic, five-spice, chilli powder and mangetout to the browned mince, then fry for a few mins more until fragrant and the pods are bright green. Splash in the stock, add the noodles, then season with the soy sauce. Pile into bowls (use tongs, it's easier), sprinkling with the sesame oil and red chilli if using.
