1/4 cup ketjap manis

2 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon sweet chilli sauce

1.Soak noodles in boiling water in a large heatproof bowl for 5 minutes, stirring to separate strands. Drain. Rinse under cold water. Drain.

2.Heat oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat. Add garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for 1 minute. Add mince, stir-fry, breaking up lumps, for 5 minutes or until browned.

3.Combine sauces in a small jug. Add a third of the sauce mixture to mince. Stir-fry 1 minute. Add bok choy and green onion, stir-fry 1 minute or until tender. Add noodles to wok with remaining sauce mixture. Stir-fry 2 minutes or until heated. Spoon into serving bowls. Serve sprinkled with nuts.

Once noodles have softened, drain weft and drizzle with a little peanut oil to prevent sticking together. Ketjap manis is a thick, sweet soy sauce that can be found in the Asian food isle of your supermarket.
