Hoisin Noodles

These Hoisin Noodles are quick and easy to prepare in the Mico Microwave Saucepan, making them a delicious choice for a speedy lunch or a light dinner. 

Serves: 2

Ingredients:

• 2 nests medium egg noodles

• 500ml boiling water

• 2 tbsp hoisin sauce

• 2½ tbsp soy sauce, plus extra for seasoning if needed

• ½ tsp toasted sesame oil

• 50g baby spinach

• 2 eggs

• 2 large spring onions, thinly sliced

• Salt

• Toasted sesame seeds (optional), to garnish

Method:

Step 1: Add the noodle nests, boiling water and a pinch of salt to the Mico saucepan. Replace the lid.

Step 2: Microwave on full power for 4 minutes or until tender.

Step 3: Meanwhile, whisk the hoisin, soy sauce and sesame oil together to make the sauce.

Step 4: Add the spinach to the saucepan and allow to wilt.

Step 5: While the spinach is wilting, fry the eggs.

Step 6: Drain the noodles and spinach well and return them to the saucepan. Stir in the sauce and the spring onions.

Note: The spinach should contain enough residual water to help the sauce cover the noodles, but you can always add a little of the cooking water for a looser sauce but be careful not to make it too watery. Divide the noodles between two bowls and top each with a fried egg. Sprinkle over the sesame seeds, if using.
