Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice (juice of 1 lime)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- Black pepper (to taste)
- ½ teaspoon chilli flakes or 1 small red chilli, finely chopped
- 3 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 8 medium eggs, beaten
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled and finely diced
- 5cm piece of ginger, grated (about 40g)
- 1 red pepper, deseeded and sliced
- ½ sweetheart cabbage, sliced
- Bunch of spring onions, roughly chopped
- 300g beansprouts
- 3 x 62g nests of dried wholemeal rice noodles, prepared according to pack instructions and cooled, or 300g precooked rice noodles
Method
- Make the sauce by combining the soy sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, black pepper and chilli flakes in a bowl. If you are using fresh chilli instead, add this later with the beansprouts, not the sauce.
- Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a deep frying pan or wok over a medium heat.
- Add the beaten egg. When it starts to solidify, break it up and cook until it is all just solid (around 2–3 minutes). Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Heat the rest of the oil over a medium heat, add the curry powder and cook for 1 minute, then add the onion, garlic and ginger to the pan and cook for 2 minutes.
- Add the red pepper and cook for a further minute, stirring regularly. Then add the cabbage and cook for another 2 minutes, continuing to stir.
- Add the spring onions, beansprouts and cooked egg and cook for 1 minute, stirring regularly.
- Finally, add the noodles and sauce, mix thoroughly, cooking for a further 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
