Pork stir-fry
Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large non-stick pan or wok. Trim the fat off a pork chop and cut into strips. Cook quickly in the oil, keeping the heat high. Add ½ a sliced onion, a crushed clove of garlic and 1cm of grated fresh ginger if you have it, ½ a sliced pepper, some mushrooms and a handful of mangetout or sugar snap peas. Turn the heat down slightly and cook for a few minutes. Add a couple of tablespoons of teriyaki sauce (or other stir-fry sauce) and then tip in an individual pack of straight-to-wok noodles. Combine to heat through and then sprinkle with ½ tsp sesame seeds.
