Fried noodles with coriander pesto, shrimp and cashews

Cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Thinly slice the garlic clove and finely chop the ginger and onion. Finely chop the cashews by hand or in a blender. Sauté the shrimp in a little olive oil until cooked through, seasoning with salt and pepper, then remove from the pan. In the same pan, sauté the onion, garlic, and ginger in a little olive oil until translucent. Add the noodles, mix well, and add a few drops of sesame oil. Then add the shrimp again, mix in the cilantro pesto (see recipe in my profile), season again with salt and pepper, and add a few more drops of sesame oil, if desired. Garnish the finished noodles with the chopped cashews, sesame seeds, and some fresh cilantro. The dish is vegetarian without the shrimp.
