  2. Prepare vegetables; slice peppers, carrots & spring onions.
  3. Cook noodles, follow packet instructions. Drain and run under cold water; add remaining oil to the noodles and toss, this will prevent them from sticking.

  5. Heat wok again to fry peppers & carrots for a couple of minutes, remove from wok.
  6. Return wok to heat, add oyster sauce; once simmering, add the beef & noodles mix, then add vegetables and toss. When piping hot it’s ready to serve.
Tip: Veggies like cauliflower, courgettes, French beans, mange tout, cherry tomatoes, green cabbage all make fabulous additions to a stir fry!
