Instructions
Step 1
Cook the pasta in a pan of boiling, salted water until tender or 'al dente' according to the packet instructions (usually 10-12mins).
Step 2
Melt the butter in a wok or large frying pan. Add the onion, celery, carrots, french beans and peppers. Stir-fry over a medium heat for 8-10 minutes until softened. Test the vegetables are cooked by tasting one of the firmer vegetables such as celery, carrot or french beans.
Step 3
Working quickly so as not to leave the vegetables without stirring for too long, drain the pasta when it is cooked and rinse in a strainer with freshly boiled water. Once drained, add the pasta to the cooked vegetables along with the soy sauce and salt and pepper to taste. Cook for a further 1-2 minutes to ensure everything is hot
