Ingredients
CORIANDER-GINGER PESTO PORK, SOBA NOODLES AND VEGETABLES
- 150g pork fillet (at room temperature)
- 75g fresh soba noodles
- 1 spring onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 carrot, peeled and cut into thin matchsticks or grated
- 1/4 head broccoli, diced 0.5cm
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons coriander-ginger pesto
- 1 tablespoon sweet chilli sauce
- 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
TO SERVE

Steps
-
a small pot of salted water to the boil.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium fry-pan (with a lid) on high heat. Cut pork fillet in half lengthways, then cook for about 1 minute on each of all four sides until golden brown and nearly cooked through. Remove from pan and cover in foil to rest for 2–3 mins.

Shake noodles to separate strands, then cook in pot of boiling water for about 1 minute, until just tender. Drain and run under cold tap to prevent over-cooking. Drizzle with a little sesame oil to prevent sticking.

Return pan used for pork to high heat and drizzle with oil. Stir-fry spring onion, carrot and broccoli for about 1 minute, add water and stir-fry for a further 1 minute, until vegetables are tender.
-
Add first measure of coriander-ginger pesto, sweet chilli sauce and vinegar. Toss to coat and cover for 1 minute.
-
Thinly slice pork and add to pan, along with any resting juices and cooked soba noodles. Toss to heat through for 1 minute, until pork is cooked through.
-
Place coriander-ginger pesto pork, soba noodles and vegetables onto a plate. Garnish with peanuts, coriander-ginger pesto and coriander.
