Method

Mix the radishes in a bowl with the lime juice and a pinch of salt. Set aside to lightly pickle.
Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger and fry for 1 minute. Stir in the mock duck, hoisin, vinegar and 100ml water, then bring to a simmer. Set aside.
Cook the noodles according to the pack instructions. Toss the noodles with the sauce and duck, then pile into 4 ramen-style bowls. Top with the spring onions, carrot, cucumber, drained radishes and an egg (if using). Serve sprinkled with the sesame seeds and chilli oil if you like

delicious. tips

Mock duck is a vegan meat substitute made from seitan (wheat protein). Find it in the freezer section of larger supermarkets or at Ocado.

For a perfectly jammy egg, cook it in gently simmering water for 7 minutes. Plunge into cold water, then peel.
