Ingredients

streaky bacon 6 rashers
sesame seeds 1 tbsp
pak choi 1, quartered lengthways
sugar snap peas 100g
baby corn 100g
instant ramen noodles 2 packs (with flavour sachets)
soy sauce 1 tbsp
spring onion 1, sliced
sesame oil 1 tbsp
chilli sauce to serve

Method

Step 1

Put the bacon into a wide, deep frying pan and cook, turning, over a medium heat until just starting to crisp. Sprinkle with ¹/2 the sesame seeds, flip, then sprinkle with the remaining sesame seeds. Cook until the bacon is really crisp and the sesame seeds have toasted, then remove onto a plate. Tip the pak choi, sugar snap peas and baby corn into the same pan, and toss for 1 minute in the bacon fat. Add the ramen noodles, flavour sachets and recommended amount of water, and simmer according to pack instructions. Then add the soy sauce.
Step 2

Divide the noodles, soup and veg between two bowls, then top with spring onions, sesame oil, sesame-crusted bacon and a drizzle of chilli sauce, if you like.
