Take mince beyond bakes and bolognaise. It tastes great teamed with garlic, ginger and a touch of Chinese five spice.
Ingredients
- 1 x 440g pkt flat rice noodles
- 80ml (1/3 cup) Massel chicken style liquid stock
- 60ml (1/4 cup) hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce

- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon Chinese five spice
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil

- 1 bunch broccolini, coarsely chopped
- 1 small red capsicum, halved, deseeded, thinly sliced

Method

Notes
With a twist: Stir-fried chicken with oyster sauce: Omit Chinese five spice. Replace the hoisin sauce with oyster sauce. Replace the mince with chicken stir-fry strips. Replace capsicum with 2 zucchini. Replace carrot with 1 celery stick, thinly sliced. Add the zucchini with the noodles in step 3.
