I always make double the amount of sauce for this (because I like a lot of sauce). Absolutely delicious and super quick and simple.

This was really tasty, easy to make and had a ton of flavor, there was just enough heat and went well with vermicelli noodles. I would have this again and wouldn't change much, probably just add more spring onions. Great dish.

Loved it! Very quick to make and simple too. Has quite a kick to it! Could do with a bit more sauce so may add some water next time

Could this be the tastiest recipe on bbc goodfood?? It's absolutely phenomenal. Tesco do the chilli bean sauce if anyone is struggling. It's on the world food aisle.
