Instructions
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the egg noodles.
- Once boiling add the noodles to the water and cook until softened, 4-6 mins.
- Once cooked, drain in a sieve then return to the pot, off the heat.
- Drizzle with oil and toss to prevent sticking.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
- Meanwhile, halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
- Zest and juice the lime.
- Place a large pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, fry the beef mince, bell pepper and lemongrass paste until the beef is browned, 6-8 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince.
- Season with salt and pepper. Use a spoon to break the mince up as it cooks.
- Add the Thai spice and cook until fragrant, 1 min.
- Add the stock to the beef along with 50ml water (double for 4p) and the lime juice.
- Stir in the peas, chilli flakes (use less if you don't like spice), ketjap manis and sweet chilli sauce.
- Simmer everything together for 1-2 mins.
- Once cooked, remove the mince from the heat. IMPORTANT: Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
TIP: You can leave out the chilli flakes if cooking for kids. It will still taste delicious without!
- Add the drained noodles to the pot.
- Mix well to coat in the sauce and warm through.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Share the Thai style beef noodles between bowls.
- Finish with a sprinkling of lime zest.
