Ingredients

Satay Pork Noodle Bowl

  • 500 grams pork mince
  • ¼ cup satay sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon fennel seeds
  • 1 tablespoon chilli flakes
  • 125 gram vermicelli noodles
  • ½ cup butter lettuce
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 lebanese cucumber
  • 1 red capsicum
  • 3 shallots
  • 1 tbs granulated peanuts
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Satay Pork Noodle Bowl

  • Add pork mince, garlic, fennel and chilli flakes to medium sized bowl
  • Season with salt and pepper then stir to combine
  • Add the satay sauce and stir through
  • Place a sheet of baking paper on a tray and roll the mix into small meatballs
  • Put a splash of olive oil into a frypan and turn onto a medium heat
  • Add the meatballs and cook for 4 mins each side, turning and moving the fry pan to get the balls to cook on all sides. Remove from pan and set aside
  • Place the vermicelli noodles into a heatproof bowl and pour enough boiling water over the noodles to cover them, use a fork to separate, leave for 3 minutes
  • Cut the carrot, capsisum and cucumber into edible portions, break apart the lettuce leaves and place with the veggies
  • Rinse the water from the noodles and portion them out into 2 serving bowls
  • Start to top the noodles with the veggies
  • Reheat the meatballs for 1-3 minutes in the pan and place in the bowls,  sprinkle peanuts on top
  • Use additional satay sauce as a dressing

Notes

  • You can use pork, beef, lamb, veal, turkey or chicken mince for this recipe. If you make it often enough, you may may to switch up the flavours every now and then! 
  • I like using fennel with the pork and chilli if using beef. I also find that cardamon is a good spice for chicken or turkey meatballs.
