Cooking Steps
1
- Trim the pak choi, then thinly slice widthways.
- Trim the carrot, then slice into ½ cm rounds (no need to peel).
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Zest half the lime (double for 4p) then cut in half.
2
- Place a pan over medium-high heat (no oil).
- When the pan is hot, add the beef mince and cook until browned, 5-6 mins.
- Use a wooden spoon to break it up as it cooks.
- Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
3
- Lower the heat and add the carrots with a drizzle of oil if necessary. Cook until softened, 4-5 mins, stirring occasionally.
- Add the garlic, Thai spice mix and chicken stock.
- Add 100ml water (double for 4p) and the pak choi, then mix everything together.
- Simmer, stirring frequently until the liquid has reduced by half, 4-5 mins.
4
- When the beef is ready stir through the hoisin sauce, 2 tsp sugar (double for 4p), and a squeeze of lime juice to taste.
- Add a splash of water if necessary.
5
- Gently separate the noodles with your hands then add them to the pan.
- Toss the lime zest and noodles gently in the sauce until noodles are softened, 1-2 mins.
- Remove from the heat, taste and season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
6
- Share the fragrant beef noodles between your bowls.
- Chop any remaining lime into wedges and serve alongside.
