Vejledning

As with all stir fries and stir fried noodles, this moves fast once you start cooking – around 6 minutes start to finish – so have everything ready to go before you start cooking!

Prepare noodles per packet directions.

Mix Sauce in a small bowl.

Heat oil in wok or large heavy based skillet over high heat.

Add garlic and chilli and cook for 10 seconds. Don't inhale - the chilli will make you cough!

Add onion, cook for 1 minute.

Add chicken and fish sauce, and fry until cooked, around 2 minutes.

Add green onion, noodles and sauce and cook for 1 minute until the sauce reduces and coats the noodles.

Remove from heat and immediately add basil, toss until just wilted, then serve immediately.
