Cooking Steps

Cook noodles
1

Before starting, add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt in a large pot. (NOTE: Use same for 4 ppl.) Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Wash and dry all produce.

Add noodles to the boiling water. Cook, until tender, 2-3 min. Drain and rinse noodles under warm water. Return noodles to the pot, off heat and add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl). Toss to coat. Using a pair of scissors, make a few cuts in the pot to cut up the noodles. Set aside.

Prep
2

Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices. Trim snap peas. Roughly chop cilantro.

Cook pork
3

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add sesame oil, then pork, peanuts and sesame seeds. Cook, breaking up pork into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.** Season with salt and pepper. Transfer pork to a large bowl. Cover with foil to keep warm.

Start veggies
4

Heat the same pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then snap peas, carrots and peppers. Cook, stirring often, until tender, 4-5 min.

Finish veggies
5

Remove pan from the heat. Add hoisin sauce, garlic puree, vegetarian oyster sauce and 2 tbsp water (dbl for 4 ppl). Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly, 1-2 min. Add veggie sauce mixture to the pot with noodles, then toss to coat.

Finish and serve

Divide noodles between bowls, then top with the sesame and peanut pork. Sprinkle cilantro over top.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavor: Many enjoyed the tasty blend of flavors, with some suggesting adding a bit of heat or lime for extra zing.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and easy to make, though some found the timing tricky with noodles cooling before other ingredients were ready.
  • Suggestions: Consider toasting peanuts separately and sprinkling on top; try chicken or pork strips instead of ground meat for better texture.
  • Portions: Generous servings, with many reporting leftovers for lunch the next day.
  • Vegetables: Some found snap peas tough or stringy; consider substituting with green beans or adding broccoli for more variety.
