Method
- Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions. Drain well, then set aside. Meanwhile, put the steak in a bowl with half the chilli sauce, the garlic and ginger, then toss to coat.
- Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan over a high heat. Stir-fry the beef for 1 minute or until the beef is browned. Remove from the pan, then set aside.
- Wipe the pan clean, then return to a medium-high heat. Add the spring onion, mangetout or sugar snap peas and 2 tbsp water, then stir-fry for 1 minute until the mangetout/peas are just tender. Return the beef to the pan with any cooking juices.
- Add the cooked noodles, fish sauce, lime juice and remaining sweet chilli sauce, then stir-fry for 1 minute more or until heated through. Stir in the basil leaves, then divide among bowls and serve immediately.
