    1 Combine soy sauce, hoisin sauce, lime juice and chilli in a small bowl. Set aside. Cook noodles following the packet instructions. Drain. Set aside.

    2 Lightly spray a large wok with olive oil and set over high heat. Add egg and tilt wok to cover base to make a thin omelette. Cook for 1 minute, or until just set. Remove omelette from pan, roll up and slice. Repeat to make the two omelettes.

    3 Lightly spray wok with a little more oil. Stir-fry the onion for 2 minutes, or until light golden. Add the ginger and garlic, and stir-fry for 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Add capsicum, sugar snaps and gai larn, and stir-fry 2 minutes, or until almost tender.

    4 Add the reserved noodles and sauces to wok, and stir-fry for 1–2 minutes, or until heated through. Serve hokkien noodles immediately, topped with the omelette and extra sliced chilli.
