Firstly sorry I’ve not been around much this past week, I’ve been struggling the past few weeks with a dodgy hip among other things so I’ve not been cooking very much and making very good friends with the sofa! We also went away for Easter for a few days by the sea to relax, which was well needed! I hobbled around as best as I could for brief spells and we had a nice lunch out over looking the sea plus the odd ice-cream! The journey back was awful, the motorway was solid so we did a magical mystery tour of A roads and what seemed like farm tracks, including through the spectacular Cheddar Gorge! I am back home now but will off a few more weeks so I apologise now if I get a little ranty on my twitter feed from being stuck indoors!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Going back to the most important thing – food! We love noodles it is no lie. Whenever I ask B what he wants to eat it\u2019s nearly always Noodles! I play around with my recipe as to what needs using, slowly perfecting it and this was pretty darn good! When I served it up it looked a bit small but I think it was my new dishes being quite big as I was full up afterwards! Plus we did have a plateful of freshly cooked prawn crackers alongside! I am so pleased we bought them on our last jaunt into China Town!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I made this back in February I think, (I’ve started dating things in my notebook now as memory fails me some days!) using up some leftover <\/a>roast pork. There wasn’t very much pork leftover after making some other dishes but when mixed up with everything else it was most adequate! I think noodle dishes are great for making something out of not very much! I also garnished it with ribbons of egg to help bulk out the protein and make it look attractive too!<\/div>\n

Serves 2<\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/b><\/p>\n

2 nests Fine egg noodles
\u00bd courgette, sliced into half moons
\u00bd red onion, sliced thinly
1 basics vegetable stock cube
75g leftover cooked pork, finely shredded
2 tsp garlic and ginger paste
1tsp Chinese 5 spice
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sherry\/ Shaoxing wine
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
1\/2 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp sunflower oil
3 spring onions, finely sliced
\u00bd tsp sesame seeds
1 egg, beaten<\/p>\n

Place the shredded pork, 5 spice, pepper, sherry, soy sauce and sesame oil in a bowl to marinade for a little while before ready to cook. <\/div>\n

Heat a large frying pan, spray a little oil and add the beaten egg, tilt the pan to make a thin layer, cook until browned underneath, flip for 20 seconds and remove to a chopping board. Roll up and slice finely into ribbons and keep warm.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
Meanwhile cover the noodles in boiling water, crumble in the stock cube and cook as per packet instructions – normally 3-4 minutes. When cooked, drain and reserve 50ml of the cooking stock.<\/p>\n

Add the oil to the pan and cook the onion until softened, add the courgette and fry until golden, add more oil if its burning. Reduce the heat and add the ginger and garlic paste. then add the white part of the spring onion, and fry for a minute or so. Then add the pork and its marinade, then stir through the noodles and the reserved stock and heat through. Season with salt and pepper – I find soya sauce quite salty but B likes more so adjust to your tastes!<\/p>\n

Spoon the noodles into your serving bowls, sprinkle over the sesame seeds, egg ribbons and green parts of the spring onion<\/p><\/div>\n
