minutesIngredients
500g fresh udon noodles (or 300g dried, cooked to packet instructions)
1 bunch broccolini, stems finely sliced, leafy tops cut into bite-sized pieces
1 medium carrot, cut into matchsticks
500g lean pork mince
½ brown onion, finely sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 green onions, whites and greens separated, finely sliced
1 small knob ginger (about 2 tsp), grated
2 tbsp neutral oil (vegetable, peanut, or canola)
- Sauce
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp regular soy sauce
½ tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp sesame oil
½ tsp chilli flakes (adjust to taste, optional)
¼ cup chicken stock
Directions
- If using dried udon noodles, cook according to packet instructions, then drain and set aside. If using fresh udon, loosen under hot water, then drain.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients until well combined. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the onion, green onion whites, broccolini stems, carrot, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until fragrant and just starting to soften.
- Add the pork mince and break it up with a spoon. Cook for 4–5 minutes until browned and starting to caramelise.
- Stir in the sauce ingredients. Toss well, then add the broccolini tops. Cook for 2–3 minutes until the greens are just tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Add the udon noodles and toss everything together for 1–2 minutes until coated and heated through.
- Remove from heat, top with the sliced green onion greens.
