Method
- Boil the kettle. Put the rice noodles in a heatproof bowl, cover with boiling water and soak for 5 to 8 minutes, until soft, then drain and rinse under cold water.
- Trim the brussels sprouts and shred them finely. Cut the carrots into matchsticks, slice the garlic, grate the ginger, roughly chop the peanuts and cut the lime into wedges.
- Warm the olive oil in a wok or large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Stir-fry the sprouts and carrots for 5 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until softened with some charred edges.
- Add the garlic and ginger and stir for 30 seconds.
- Tip in the noodles, soy sauce and sweet chilli sauce and toss for 2 minutes, until hot and evenly coated.
- Scatter the peanuts over and serve with the lime wedges to squeeze on.
Tip Shred the sprouts as finely as you can. A food processor with a slicing disc does a pile of them in seconds.
