Very easy, fast and really tasty. Will become a regular recipe. I cooked the garlic first before the mince, which I prefer.

Made this for the first time. Used pork mince as I prefer it. Added some cauliflower florets, red pepper, chilli, ginger and mushrooms. Used sharwoods med egg noodles. Very nice :)

Lovely quick and cheap dinner. Added some baby corn and half a red chilli. Also used half tbsp sweet chilli sauce and half tbsp hot pepper sauce instead of chilli sauce. Definitely going on the regular dinner list!

Great easy stir fry recipe and a good way to use turkey mince. I would be tempted to add some chilli next time for some added oomph!
