Step 1

Instruction

Put a large saucepan of water with a pinch of salt on to boil for the noodles. Halve, then remove the core from the pepper and cut into thin slices. Trim the tops from the green beans, then chop into thirds. Halve the red chilli lengthways, deseed and finely slice. Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all). Cut the lime into four wedges. In a small bowl combine the soy sauce, ketchup and honey. This is your sauce.
