Chilli ginger pork and noodles

12 minutes (15 minutes)

Serves 4

Replace pork with lean chicken, beef or tofu.

400g packet wholegrain wok-ready noodles
250g lean pork medallion, trimmed of any fat, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons sunflower oil
300g mushroom cups, thinly sliced
1 large carrot, coarsely grated
115g punnet fresh baby corn, halved lengthways
4 green shallots, cut into 3cm lengths
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
1 bunch choy sum, stems and leaves coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
3 teaspoons reduced salt soy sauce
2 teaspoons chilli paste
½ cup unsalted, roasted cashews

Place noodles in a heatproof bowl. Cover with boiling water. Stand 2-3 minutes, stirring to separate noodles. Drain.
Toss pork in a bowl with 1 tablespoon oil. Heat a large, non-stick wok or frying pan over a high heat. Add half the pork. Stir-fry about 2 minutes, until browned. Remove. Repeat with remaining pork.
Heat remaining oil in same wok. Add mushrooms. Stir-fry 3 minutes, until lightly browned and just tender. Add carrot, corn, shallots and ginger. Stir-fry 2 minutes.
Return pork to wok with noodles and choy sum. Toss over heat about 2 minutes until choy sum is just wilted.
Add combined sauces, chilli paste and 1 tablespoon water. Toss over heat until ingredients are coated in sauce and mixture is hot. Add cashews. Toss to combine.
