This recipe is easily doubled to serve four if you have plenty of leftover chicken; if you have less, bump up the protein with a handful of cashews
Ingredients
- 2 tsp cornflour
- 2 tbsp fish sauce or soy
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 2 blocks medium egg noodles
- 1 tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 large red pepper, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 4 spring onions, sliced
- 200g leftover roast chicken, shredded
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- ½ tsp chilli powder
- 100g frozen pea
- ½ a 20g pack basil or coriander, leaves roughly shredded
Method
Mix the cornflour with the fish sauce and sugar, then gradually add 8 tbsp water until smooth. Cook the noodles in a pan of boiling water for 4 mins.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a wok, then stir-fry the pepper, garlic and spring onions for about 3 mins. Tip in the chicken, spices, and peas, stir-fry for a couple of secs more, then pour in the fish sauce and flour mix. Stir until thickened, then toss in the drained noodles and basil or coriander.
