Cooking Steps
Wash and dry all produce. Cut the green beans and broccolini into 1-inch pieces. Mince or grate the garlic. Peel, then mince or grate 1 tbsp ginger. (TIP: Use a spoon to scrape the skin off the ginger!) Thinly slice the green onions.
Heat a large pan over medium heat. Add the cashews to the dry pan. Cook, stirring often, until golden-brown and toasted, 3-4 min. Set aside on a plate. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)
Increase the pan to medium-high heat. Add the sesame oil, then the green beans and broccolini. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, 6-7 min. Add the garlic and ginger. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 min.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the mirin, yellow bean sauce, cornstarch and 1/2 cup water.
Add the sauce and noodles to the veggies. Cook, stirring often, until the noodles are warmed through, 1-2 min. (TIP: Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup more water if the noodles look dry!) Season with salt and pepper.
Divide the stir-fried noodles between bowls. Sprinkle with green onions and cashews.
