Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Boil a kettle
Slice the green chilli[es] finely
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the ginger
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
2
Rip the leaves off the spring greens, discard the tough stalks, then layer the leaves over each other, roll them up and slice into thin strips
3
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a small drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat
Once hot, add the pork mince and cook for 5-6 min or until browned and very crispy, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as you go
Once crispy, transfer the crispy pork to a plate and set aside
Reserve the pan

Meanwhile, add the wholewheat noodles to a pot and cover them with boiled water until fully submerged
Bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for 3-4 min or until tender
Once tender, drain the noodles, reserving a cup of the starchy noodle water
Tip: drizzle over a little vegetable oil to stop the noodles from sticking together
5
Return the reserved pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of vegetable oil
Once hot, add the sliced spring greens with a pinch of salt and cook for 3-4 min or until wilted
6
Meanwhile, add the tahini to a bowl with the soy sauce, chopped garlic, chopped ginger, Sriracha hot chilli sauce, chilli flakes (Can't handle the heat? Go easy!)andChinese rice wine with 50ml [80ml] of the starchy noodle water
Give everything a good mix up – this is your spicy sesame sauce
Bash the peanuts with a rolling pin until roughly crushed (keep them in the bag so you don't lose any!)
7
Add the drained noodles, crispy pork and spicy sesame sauce to the pan with the wilted spring greens and give everything a good mix up – these are your spicy pork & sesame noodles
Tip: add a splash more starchy noodle water if the sauce is looking a little dry
