Method

To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients in a small pan over a low-medium heat. Cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
Remove the sausagemeat from the casings and put in a bowl with the finely chopped spring onions, a splash of soy and lots of black pepper to season. Mix well, then shape into 12 meatballs.
Heat a frying pan/wok with a splash of sunflower oil and fry the sausage meatballs, turning, until browned all over and almost cooked through (6-8 minutes). Remove and set aside. Wipe out the pan if need be and add a splash more oil, then stir-fry the green veg for 2-3 minutes, adding a splash of water to get some steam going in the pan.

Add the meatballs to the pan with half the sauce, the noodles and a splash of water, then cook, turning gently, until everything is hot. Serve with the remaining sauce drizzled over, sprinkled with the sliced spring onions, sesame seeds and coriander, with lime wedges for squeezing.

Sriracha is a hot sauce made from red chillies, garlic, vinegar, salt and sugar. It has a hot, tangy, sweetly addictive flavour. It’s used as a condiment in Thai and Vietnamese cooking, but is a great addition to marinades and sauces. This recipe is meant to be spicy, so serve the sauce on the side if you’re sensitive to chilli heat.
