Recipe Instructions:
Ingredients
2 tbsp sunflower oil
300g purple sprouting broccoli, stalks finely sliced and florets halved or left whole
1 stick celery, thinly sliced
1 carrot, halved lengthways and thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
thumb-sized piece ginger, cut into matchsticks
1 red chilli, halved lengthways and thinly sliced
3 spring onions, 2 cut into 3cm segments, 1 thinly sliced
2 tsp cornflour
1 tsp caster sugar
1 tbsp dark soy sauce
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
275g pack ready-cooked egg noodles
Method
STEP 1
Heat the sunflower oil in a wok or large frying pan over a high heat. Stir-fry the broccoli stalks, celery and carrot for 4-5 minutes or until beginning to caramelise. Add the garlic, ginger, three-quarters of the chilli and the spring onion segments, and cook for 2 minutes.
STEP 2
Spoon the cornflour into a bowl and stir with a few teaspoons of water to make a thin paste. Add in another 100ml of water, along with the sugar, soy, oyster sauce and sesame oil. Tip into the pan with the broccoli florets and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the florets have cooked through. Add the noodles and toss until reheated.
STEP 3
Divide between bowls and top with the remaining chilli and the thinly sliced spring onion.
