  4. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large wok or fry-pan on high heat. Cook pork mince, garlic and ginger with a pinch of salt for about 6 minutes, until mince is browned and just cooked through, breaking up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Set aside in a large bowl. Keep wok/pan on heat.
  5. Heat another drizzle of oil in wok/pan and stir-fry spring onions (white part), cabbage, carrots and green beans for about 2 minutes, or until cabbage begins to wilt. Set aside in bowl with cooked pork mince. Return wok/pan to heat and reduce heat to medium.
  6. Stir-fry cooked noodles and sauce for about 1 minute, or until noodles are coated in sauce. Return pork and vegetables to wok/pan and toss until heated through, about 1 minute.
  7. Divide pork and vegetable noodle stir-fry between bowls. Drizzle over a little sweet chilli sauce (if using), garnish with spring onion (green part), peanuts, coriander (if using) and a squeeze of lemon juice (if using).
