Scale
Main Ingredients
- 100g ramen noodles
- 100g green beans, halved
- 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
- juice of 1 lime
- 1 tbsp chilli sauce
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 250g turkey mince
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 6 spring onions, sliced diagonally
Instructions
- Cook the noodles and green beans: Boil the ramen noodles according to the package instructions, adding the halved green beans for the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain the noodles and beans thoroughly and set aside.
- Prepare the hoisin sauce mixture: In a small bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, fresh lime juice, and chilli sauce. Mix well and set aside.
- Cook the turkey mince: Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the turkey mince and fry until it is nicely browned and cooked through, breaking it up as it cooks.
- Add garlic and sauce: Stir in the chopped garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute to release its aroma. Pour in the hoisin-lime-chilli sauce mixture, stirring well to coat the meat, and cook for a few more minutes until the sauce becomes sticky.
- Combine noodles and vegetables: Add the drained noodles and green beans to the pan along with half of the sliced spring onions. Toss everything together gently and heat through to blend the flavors evenly.
- Serve: Transfer to plates or bowls and garnish with the remaining spring onions for a fresh, crunchy finish. Serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Using fresh lime juice balances the sweetness of hoisin sauce with a tangy freshness.
- You can substitute turkey mince with chicken or pork mince if preferred.
- For extra heat, increase the chilli sauce or add fresh sliced chilies.
- Make sure not to overcook the green beans to keep their crunch and bright color.
- Leftover hoisin sauce can be used in other recipes like grilled aubergines or chicken wraps.
