Description

Quick and easy wins the race! Stir-frying is the OG approach for creating a fast meal. In this 10-minute recipe, there’s even time to rehydrate mushrooms for an extra layer of flavour. Throw them (and their liquid) into the pan with ground pork, garlic and Asian greens. Toss with freshly boiled Shanghai noodles coated in a sauce that gets its sweet from sweet soy and its sour from a blast of lime juice—plus a scattering of peanuts for rich crunch.
