Cooking Instructions and Tips
a) Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/4 tsp salt.
b) When boiling, add the noodles to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 4 mins.
c) Once cooked, drain in a colander. TIP: Run the noodles under cold water to stop them sticking together.

d) Trim and thinly slice the spring onion.
a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
b) Once the oil is hot, add the pork mince and cook until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
c) Once cooked, transfer the mince to a bowl.
a) Pop the (now empty) pan back on medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil if needed.
