Ingredients

  • 500 g Regular Pork Mince
  • 1 each Chow Mein Mince Recipe Base Serves 4
  • 0.5 each cabbage
  • 2 each carrot
  • 340 g egg noodles
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 stalks spring onion
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Slice the cabbage thinly, grate the carrots, and finely mince the garlic. Chop the green onions into small pieces.
  3. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the pork mince, breaking it up as it cooks for about 5 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.
  5. Heat the remaining 1 tbsp of oil in the same pan. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until aromatic.
  6. Add the sliced cabbage and grated carrots. Stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until tender but still crisp.
  7. Return the browned pork mince to the pan. Add the Chow Mein Mince Recipe Base and cook for 2 minutes, ensuring the mince is well coated.
  8. Stir in the cooked egg noodles, soy sauce, and chopped green onions. Toss everything together until heated through.
  9. Serve hot, garnished with extra green onions if desired.
