from Great Food Live

Simon Rimmer delivers a taste of South East Asian cooking in this tart and tangy stir-fry, resplendent with fresh flavours

Ingredients:

For the aubergines
1 drizzle vegetable oil
300 grams baby aubergines

For the sauce
1 lime, juice only
1 orange, juice only
100 ml light soy sauce
50 ml sake
1 teaspoon chilli flakes

For the vegetables
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 spring onions, finely chopped
100 grams egg noodles
100 grams bean sprouts
1 head pak choi, blanched

For the garnish
100 grams crushed roasted peanuts
1 to 2 tablespoons coriander chopped
Directions:
1. 1. Heat a heavy griddle with a drizzle of vegetable oil. Split the aubergines, not quite all the way through, and cook over a moderate heat until they have softened, but still hold their shape.
2. 2. For the sauce, combine the lime juice, orange juice, soy sauce, sake and chilli flakes. Set aside.
3. 3. Heat the vegetable oil in a wok and fry the spring onions over a high heat, for 2 minutes. Add the noodles and bean sprouts and stir-fry for another 2 minutes.
4. 4. Tip in the pak choi and aubergine, and stir in the sauce. Reheat, and serve scattered with peanuts and coriander.
