Method


  1. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the spring onion, onion, garlic, ginger and chilli and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the onions have softened slightly.

  2. Add the white shreds of pak choi and the salt. Continue to fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the pak choi has wilted and the other vegetables have softened.

  3. Add the chicken strips and ground allspice and stir until the ingredients are well combined and coated in the allspice. Continue to fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the spices are fragrant.

  4. Add the chicken stock and soy sauce to the pan. Bring to the boil and cook for 3-4 minutes.

  5. Add the green shreds of pak choi, the egg noodles and lemongrass stalk and stir well. Continue to boil the mixture for 4-5 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and the chicken is completely cooked through. Just before serving, stir in the chopped coriander.

  6. Serve in bowls at once.
