  1. NOT YOUR AVERAGE MINCE MIX

    Place a pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry for 5-6 minutes until browned and caramelised, shifting occasionally. In the final 1-2 minutes, add ½ the grated ginger and the curry paste (to taste). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  2. WANT IT SOBA-D

    Boil the kettle. Fill a pot with boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and place over high heat. Once bubbling rapidly, cook the noodles for 6-8 minutes until tender. Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking process. Toss through some oil to prevent sticking and set aside.

  3. GO MAN, GO

    Return the pan, wiped down, to a medium-high heat. When hot, add the mango fingers and fry for 1-2 minutes per side until starting to char. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. CAUSE A STIR (FRY)

    Loosen the peanut sauce with 15ml of water. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the pepper strips and fry for 3-4 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. Add the julienne carrot and fry for 2-3 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. Remove from the heat and add the loosened peanut sauce, the cooked noodles, and the browned mince. Season, if necessary, and set aside.

  5. SIZZLING OIL

    Place the remaining ginger, ½ the chopped peanuts, ½ the chopped coriander, and the chilli flakes (to taste) in a small bowl. Place a small pan over medium-high heat with 2 tbsp of oil. Heat for 1-2 minutes until hot. When hot, pour the oil over the chilli mix and let it sizzle!

  6. THERE YOU HAVE IT!

    Bowl up the peanut stir-fry. Top with the charred mango and drizzle over the fragrant oil (to taste). Sprinkle over the remaining coriander and peanuts. Serve with a lemon wedge. Enjoy, Chef!
