Stir-fried Noodles and Beansprouts

When I blogged the Ayam Percik the other day for one of my Fusion Taste Team challenges, I mentioned that I served it with stir fried noodles and here I am sharing the recipe I used which originally came from BBC Good Food.

They made a really nice accompaniment to the dish and I am pretty sure that these will be become a regular in our house, especially as they are something that both my children would enjoy as well.

Very simple, very tasty! This recipe service 4-6 and amounts can easily be adjusted to suit.

Stir-fried Noodles and Beansprouts

Ingredients

3 nests medium egg noodles

1 tsp vegetable oil

4 spring onions, sliced

300g beansprouts

soy sauce

Method

Place the noodles into a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave to soak for around 8 minutes - the noodles should be tender.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large work and fry the spring onions for 1 minute.  Add the beansprouts and fry for a further two minutes, stirring all the time.

Drain the noodles and add to the wok with a good splash of soy sauce. 

Stir-fry for a further minute and serve immediately.

I am very generous with the soy sauce as I'm quite fond of a strong taste so you can add as little or as much as you like. 

I think this noodle recipe would be a great base for a chow mein style dish just by adding some bigger chunks of onion and perhaps some chicken and prawns so I may try that another time.
