3 tsp

Fresh ginger

2 tsp, finely grated

Garlic

2 clove(s), thinly sliced

Green beans

Fresh coriander

Instructions

  1. Cook noodles in a large saucepan of boiling water, following packet instructions, or until just tender. Drain. Rinse under cold water for 30 seconds. Drain and place in a large bowl.
  2. Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook ginger and garlic, stirring, for 1 minute. Add beans, mushrooms, capsicum, soy sauce and juice.
