Stir Fry

Stir fry is the perfect way to use up leftovers in the fridge.
It is also a really quick and easy dinner and is my go-to during exams.
I normally have meat, noodles and 3 or 4 types of vegetables.

This batch only cost £1.05 per person.


Recipe:
1/2 red pepper -15p
1 medium/large carrot - 5p
2-3 broccoli florets- 9p
handful of curly kale - 10p
75g rice noodles - 20p
1 tbsp sesame oil - 4p
1 tbsp soy sauce - 2p
chicken fillet (about 100g) - 40p






Method:
  • Heat oil in a frying pan or wok
  • Add chicken and fry until it is white all over (5-7 mins) 
  • Add vegetables and stir. When softened (5 mins), add the noodles. 
  • Stir to combine and allow to heat through (2 mins) 
  • Pile onto a plate, drizzle with soy sauce and enjoy :)

Adaptations can easily be made to this recipe. Sesame oil isn't essential, any cooking oil will work, I just really love the smell and the taste it gives, but it can be a little pricey. 
I used fresh rice noodles here, but tend to buy dried as they don't go off so quickly and are often cheaper.
