Recipe | Mongolian lamb and onions noodles

Ingredients (serves 2):

2 packets instant noodles

200 g thinly-sliced lamb

1 small brown onion, thinly sliced

1 red or yellow pepper, thinly sliced

Method:

1. Boil the water and prepare the noodles according to packet instructions.

2. Heat a little oil in a non-stick pan and fry the onions until they caramelize, about a minute on high heat. Just watch the pan so they do not burn.

3. Add the lamb and pepper and toss with a chopstick. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. Divide the noodles into two bowls and add the lamb and onions.

Food note:

Supermarkets have wafer-cut lamb slices that are meant for hot pots. They are already frozen, but are good to use straight from the chiller because they are cut so thin.
