Main Cooking Instructions

  • Put the cornflour in a bowl and gradually whisk in the soy sauce. Whisk in the mirin, honey and sriracha, then set aside.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan over a high heat and fry the mushrooms for 3-4 mins, stirring often, until golden. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
  • Add the sesame oil, garlic and stir-fry vegetable mix to the wok and cook for 2-3 mins until softened.
  • Cook the noodles according to pack instructions. Add the leek to the wok, stir-fry for 1-2 mins until softened.
  • Add the cooked noodles, mushrooms and sauce and mix well to coat, cooking for a further 1-2 mins or until the sauce is reduced and sticky, coating the noodles and vegetables.
