INSTRUCTIONS

Fill a large pan with water and put on to boil. When it is boiling add the noodles and the salt.

Finely dice the onion and add it to a pan together with the olive oil and a pinch of salt and cook on a low to medium heat. Wash the broccoli and cut the tops off the stems. Peel the carrot and cut into slices together with the pepper. Add the broccoli, carrot and pepper to the onion.

Cut strips of courgette or use a peeler to create them.

Chop a generous handful of holy basil and put in a pestle and mortar together with a good glug of olive oil and some salt and mix together.

Add the courgette to the vegetable pan and stir well.

When the rice noodles are cooked take them off the heat, drain and put in four deep bowls. Divide the vegetables amongst the bowls and drizzle the basil and olive oil on the top. Add a little salt if required.
