Cooking Instructions
Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Pull out 2 large saucepans, a large bowl, a sieve, a measuring jug & a grater
Prep the ingredients
- Trim and cut the pak choi into bite-sized pieces. Slice the spring onion into 2cm pieces. Trim and cut the green beans into 2cm pieces. Thinly slice the nori
Make the meatballs
- Finely chop the coriander. Zest and quarter the lime
- In the large bowl, combine the pork mince, lime zest, half the ginger & garlic paste and half the coriander. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper
- Form into 16 meatballs
Simmer the meatballs
- Heat a large saucepan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the meatballs and fry for 5 mins, turning occasionally, until golden brown
- Stir in the Asian paste, miso paste, stock powder, the remaining ginger & garlic paste and 1.2l water. Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 14 mins
- Add the pak choi, spring onion and green beans in the final 4 mins, until the veg is soft and the meatballs are cooked through
Time to noodle
- Meanwhile, bring the other large saucepan filled with salted water to the boil
- Once boiling, add the noodles to the saucepan, gently separate with a fork and boil for 6-7 mins, until cooked. Drain, then rinse under cold water
Plate up
- Check your meat is cooked through; it should be golden brown, steaming hot, the juices should run clear when cut and there should be no pink / rare meat inside
- Stir the juice from half the lime into the broth. Serve the noodles into bowls, pouring over the pork meatball broth. Top with the pea shoots, nori, remaining coriander and remaining lime, cut into wedges
