Ingredients

Method

  1. Bring a saucepan of water to the boil, add the noodles and cook for 4 minutes or until cooked. Drain, rinse under cold water and set aside.

  2. Put the chilli, ginger and garlic into a jug with the soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and sesame oil. Blend until smooth with a stick blender, then set aside. If you don’t have a stick blender, you can pound the ingredients together with a pestle and mortar.

  3. Heat the olive oil in a wok or large frying pan over a high heat, then add the green beans, broccoli and onion. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes, until the beans and onions are lightly charred.

  4. Add the cooked noodles, black beans and the sauce and fry together for a further minute. Divide between 2 warmed bowls and serve.

Recipe Tips

Swap the noodles for cooked and cooled brown rice if you prefer.
