- Stir-fry the vegetables for 4–6 minutes, then add noodles and sauce.

- Before serving, check: Taste one piece a minute before the packet time: it should be cooked through but still have a little bite.
Beginner-friendly tips
Read these three practical tips before cooking. Check how the food looks and feels, not just the clock.
- Use a large enough pot so the water returns to a boil after adding pasta. Stir during the first minute to prevent sticking.
- Taste one piece a minute before the packet time: it should be cooked through but still have a little bite.
- Reserve some starchy pasta water before draining. Add it by the spoonful to loosen a thick sauce rather than adding lots of extra oil.
Tip
Adjust seasonings to taste and check ingredients are fully cooked before serving.
