Ingredients

THAI TURKEY AND VEGETABLE STIR-FRY

  • 2-3 spring onions
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 courgette
  • 2 baby bok choy
  • 400g rice stick noodles
  • 600g turkey mince
  • 50g Thai red curry paste
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce or soy sauce
  • 1½ teaspoons brown sugar
  • ½ cup coconut cream (shake well before opening)
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 tablespoon sweet chilli sauce (optional)

TO SERVE

  • 1 spring onion, thinly sliced on an angle
  • 1 tablespoon chopped coriander leaves and stalks

Steps

  1. a large pot of salted water (with a lid) to the boil.
  2. Prepare vegetables. Slice first measure of spring onions 1cm; peel carrot; cut carrot and courgette in half lengthways then thinly slice on an angle; rinse bok choy, trim ends 1cm then thinly slice.
  3. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frypan or wok on high heat. Stir-fry vegetables for about 3 minutes, until wilted but still crunchy. Remove from pan and set aside. Reserve pan.
  4. Place noodles in pot of boiling water. Stir well to separate strands, cover and turn off heat. Leave for 7 minutes then drain well. Drizzle with a little oil to prevent sticking and use kitchen scissors to cut in a few places to make them easier to eat.
  5. While noodles are cooking, return reserved pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil. Cook turkey mince for 2-3 minutes, breaking up with a wooden spoon as it cooks, until starting to brown. Add curry paste and cook for a further 2-3 minutes, until fragrant and mince is cooked.
  6. Add fish/soy sauce, brown sugar, coconut cream, water and sweet chilli sauce (if using). Simmer for about 1 minute then return vegetables to pan. Toss to combine and heat through, about 30 seconds.
  7. divide noodles between plates or bowls. Top with Thai turkey and vegetable stir-fry and garnish with remaining spring onion and coriander.
