Instructions

Step 1

Bring a kettle of water to the boil.

Step 2

Put the rice noodles into a bowl. Pour over enough boiling water to cover, then stir and leave for about 3 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Pour the remaining water into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Lower the heat on the saucepan, so the water is hissing rather than bubbling, then lower in your egg. Cook for 6 minutes.

Step 4

While your egg is cooking, mix the lime juice, soy sauce, soft brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, chilli and garlic together for your dressing.

Step 5

Come back to your noodles. Drain them into a colander then rinse under cold water until completely cool. Separate the noodles with your fingers. Shake off any excess water, then tip them into your serving bowl and stir through the dressing, grated carrot and courgette.

Step 6

By now your egg should be cooked. Remove with a slotted spoon and rinse under cold water until cool enough to handle. Peel, then cut in half.

Step 7

Top the noodles with the soft-boiled egg, then scatter over the roasted peanuts and mint.
