Heat the oil in a large wok and stir-fry the sprouts, leek and cashews together until softened and turning golden in places.
step 3
Drain the noodles, add to the pan and carry on cooking and tossing until well mixed. Pour in the ginger mixture toss to coat everything then add the carrots and cook until the carrots soften but still retain a bit of bite adding a dash more water if necessary to loosen up the texture.
