1. Noodle Preparation
Bring a large pan of salted water to a rolling boil. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente.
2. Sauce Mixture
While the noodles are cooking, in a small bowl, whisk the cornflour with 1 tablespoon of water. Stir in the soy sauce and honey until well combined. Set this sauce mixture aside.
3. Pork Stir-Fry
Heat the sunflower oil in a wok over high heat until shimmering. Add the pork tenderloin pieces and stir-fry for 2 minutes until they are browned on all sides. Toss in the ginger, garlic, green pepper, and mange tout. Continue to stir-fry for an additional 2 minutes, ensuring the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are crisp-tender. Reduce the heat to medium and pour in the prepared soy sauce and honey mixture. Stir continuously for a minute or two, until the sauce bubbles and thickens, thoroughly coating the pork and vegetables.
4. Assembling the Dish
Drain the cooked noodles thoroughly and divide them between two serving bowls. Spoon the pork and vegetable stir-fry over the noodles, making sure to evenly distribute the sauce. Garnish each serving with a sprinkle of sesame seeds for a nutty finish.
Infuse flavor and tenderize the meat by marinating it in a mix of soy sauce, honey, and fresh ginger for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
To maintain the best texture and flavor, serve the stir-fry right after cooking when everyone is ready to eat.
Use the highest heat setting to achieve a wok hei flavor. Use a well-seasoned wok or heavy-bottomed skillet for best results.
Enhance the dish with fresh herbs, a squeeze of lime juice, and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds or chopped peanuts for extra crunch and flavor.
Taste and adjust your sauce to balance sweet, salty, and heat, using honey, soy sauce, and ginger respectively. A splash of rice vinegar adds acidity.
