Crispy shredded duck with sweet and sticky hoisin sauce, think duck pancakes but with chunky noodles. Best of all, it's completely vegan. A 'throw it in a pan' kinda dinner that's ready in just 15 minutes, perfect for those midweek meal slumps. Add a drop of soy sauce and some chilli oil to amp up the flavours of the stir fry sauce if you like.
Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.
Chop off the ends of the tenderstem broccoli and slice each stem in half lengthways. Heat a large deep pan or wok on a high heat and add the oil. Once hot, pan-fry the halved tenderstem broccoli for 2-3 minutes until starting to char at the ends, then remove from the pan.
Slice the spring onions, keep them chunky so they hold a bit of texture in the dish. Then add them to the pan along with the vegetarian shredded duck and fry for 2 minutes.
Once the edges of the shredded duck are starting to caramelise and crisp slightly, tip in the udon noodles, hoisin stir fry sauce and tenderstem broccoli from earlier. Cook for a minute until the sauce has slightly reduced and all the noodles are coated and glossy. If using sesame seeds, add them at this point. If you'd like the noodles to be slightly saucier, add a small splash of water to the pan.
Serve up the noodles onto plates, topping with a teaspoon of chilli oil and extra sesame seeds, if using.
