4 cloves garlic - chopped
113g beansprouts
500g thick yellow noodles

Cooking Method
Step 1
Place the pork in a pan of water and bring to the boil.
Step 2
Cook for 20 minutes, skimming off the scrum, the simmer until tender. Remove the pork from the stock (reserve some for the noodles), cool and cut into bite size pieces.
Step 3
Heat the oil in a wok and fry minced garlic. When the garlic turns light brown add the crushed yellow beans to the wok. Add the pork and cook for 1 minute. If using fresh prawns, now is the time to add them to the wok.
Step 4
Add the noodles to the wok and continue stir frying. At this stage the noodles may dry out so add stock ½ cup at a time to keep the noodles moist.
Step 5
When the noodles are coated with sauce add beansprouts and season with light soya sauce. Adjust seasoning to taste. If using cooked prawns, now is the time to add them.
Step 6
Transfer noodles to a warm platter. Noodles should be moist but not swimming in sauce. Garnish with shredded omelette, cucumber, sliced chillies, fried shallots and coriander.
