Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Top, tail, peel and grate the carrot[s]
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
Peel (scrape the skin off with a teaspoon) and finely chop or grate the ginger
Cut the red chilli[es] in half lengthways, deseed (scrape the seeds out with a teaspoon) and chop finely
2
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add the beef mince and cook for 4 min until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as you go
3
Trim, then roughly chop the spring onions
Chop the coriander finely, including the stalks (save a few whole leaves for garnish)
4
Boil a kettle
Once browned, add the grated carrot to the beef and cook for a further 3 min or until crisped
5
Meanwhile, add the fine egg noodles to a pot and cover with boiled water until fully submerged
Bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for 1-2 min or until tender, then drain reserving a cup of starchy noodle water
Once drained, return the noodles to the pot and set aside
6
Once the beef has crisped, add the chopped garlic, ginger and chilli (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and cook for 1 min
Add the chilli jam and half of the soy sauce and cook for a further 4 min or until everything is browned and crispy – this is your crispy chilli beef
7
Return the pot of drained noodles to a medium heat
Add the chopped spring onion, remaining soy sauce, rice vinegar and toasted sesame oil and stir together until fully combined
Tip: Add a small splash of starchy noodle water if you need to loosen the noodles
Once combined, remove the pan from the heat and add the chopped coriander – these are your coriander noodles
