Start by putting the kettle on to boil and once boiling, fill 2 saucepans with salted boiling water.
Place the noodles in the second pan of boiling water and cook as per the instructions on the packet. Remove the noodles one minute before the total cook time as you will be cooking for a further minute in the stir fry. [So if instructions say cook for 5 minutes, only cook for 4 and drain]. Set aside.
Meanwhile cut the broccoli into florets and place into one of the saucepans of boiling water. Boil for 2 minutes then drain and plunge into ice cold water to stop the broccoli from cooking any further. Set aside.
Heat the sunflower oil in a large wok until searing hot. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and chilli and cook quickly for 3 minutes.
Add the mange tout, baby sweetcorn and red pepper and cook for a further 2 minutes.
Now add in the cooked noodles, along with the curry powder, stirring quickly to combine. Before adding in the broccoli, light soy sauce and sesame oil.
Give everything a good toss in the pan to ensure the noodles and broccoli are hot and when ready serve into bowls. Garnish each bowl with some sliced spring onions and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
