Cooking Steps
Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt for the noodles.
Halve any thick broccoli stems lengthways, then cut widthways into thirds.
Trim the carrot, then halve lengthways (no need to peel). Slice widthways into pieces about 1/2cm thick.
Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
When your pan of water is boiling, add the noodles and cook until tender, 4 mins.
Once cooked, drain in a sieve and run under cold water to stop them sticking together.
Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).
Once hot, add the beef and pork mince and fry 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. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Once the mince is cooked, transfer it to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
Pop the (now empty) frying pan back on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil if needed.
Once hot, add the Tenderstem® broccoli and carrot. Stir-fry for 2-3 mins, then add the garlic and stir-fry for 30 secs more.
Add a splash of water, then cover with a lid (or foil) and allow to cook until tender, 4-6 mins more. Season with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, ketjap manis, honey, tomato ketchup and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts) with half the sesame seeds. TIP: If your honey has hardened, pop it in a bowl of hot water for 1 min.
Once the veg is cooked, add the cooked mince and noodles to the pan.
Pour in the sticky sauce and stir together until piping hot, 1-2 mins.
When ready, share the honey sesame beef and pork noodles between your bowls.
Sprinkle over the remaining sesame seeds to finish for those who'd like them.
Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The honey-sesame sauce is a highlight, delivering a satisfying sweet-savoury balance; some find it a touch too sweet and suggest reducing the water for a stickier, more concentrated glaze.
- Ease of prep: Quick and straightforward to pull together on a weeknight; one useful tip is to mix all the sauce ingredients into a single bowl in advance, so everything goes into the pan smoothly without rushing.
- Suggestions: Adding fresh chilli, chilli flakes, or a little ginger can lift the flavour if you prefer more heat or depth. Slicing carrots into thinner strips or ribbons helps them cook through more evenly, and steaming the broccoli briefly before stir-frying ensures both vegetables are tender throughout. Going easy on added salt is worth considering, as the soy sauce already brings plenty.
- Next-day meals: One reviewer added mushrooms and extra chilli and found the dish stretched comfortably to three meals, though others noted the noodles did not reheat as well the following day.
- Portions: Portions are generally well received and often described as generous; a small number felt the balance leaned too heavily towards noodles, and suggested a little more mince or veg would round the dish out better.
