Method

1. Heat some of the oil in a large pan or wok. Fry the chicken or beef strips in batches, over a high heat, until browned but not quite cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
-
2. Add the peppers and carrots (with more oil if necessary) and stir-fry over a high heat for a few minutes.
-
3. Now stir in the garlic, ginger and beans, and cook until the beans are tender but still bright green.
-
4. Return the chicken or beef strips to the pan and add the spring onions and Royco® Sweet and Sour Sauce.
-
5. Turn down the heat and simmer for a few more minutes, or until the chicken or beef is cooked right through, but the veggies are still crunchy. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
-
6. In the meantime, cook the noodles according to the packet instructions and drain well.
-
7 Serve your stir-fry hot with the noodles, fresh coriander and cashew nuts (or peanuts).
