Noodle Stir-fry



Here's a fast and tasty variation with noodles. I don't use my wok very often, but it works perfectly for this recipe. If you don't have a wok, use a large skillet - that will be allright too!

Noodle Stir-Fry
serves 2

100 g egg noodles
1 tbsp sesame oil
200 g thinly sliced beef, in strips
2 cloves of garlic, sliced
1 red chili, finely chopped
1 carrot, julienned
150 g green beans, blanched in boiling water for a minute (or given 30 sec in the microwave, if you use frozen ones like I did)

For the dressing:
the juice of a lime
1-2 tbsp fish sauce
1-2 tsp honey
1 tsp chili paste (sambal oelek)


Boil the noodles according to the packaging, and rinse them in cold water. Set aside. Heat the sesame oil in a wok or a large skillet, and fry the beef and all the veggies. Add the noodles.

Mix the dressing, and adjust seasoning (lime makes it tarter, fish sauce saltier, honey sweeter (obviously!) and sambal oelek makes it hotter) according to taste. Pour over the stir fry and let it sink in for a minute. Serve!
