Place the minced meat in a bowl and mix well with the soy sauce, chili sauce, cornstarch, and sugar. In a pan, or preferably a wok, lightly roast the sliced spring onions in the peanut oil. Then add the minced meat, fry, and chop to taste. Cook the glass noodles according to the package instructions or soak them and add them as well. Finally, add the vegetable stock until the liquid is absorbed. Tips: Let the minced meat simmer for 15 minutes. During this time, you can chop the onions and stir in the vegetable stock. For the chili sauce, I always use a sauce with garlic rather than sweet chili sauce, as it already has enough sugar. For sauces and noodles, it’s always worth going to an Asian market. You can get the ingredients there much cheaper than in the supermarket. If you like, you can add chili flakes to the meat or enhance the dish with sugar snap peas.
