Directions
Put the cornflour in a small bowl and mix in the soy sauce and ketchup to make a smooth paste. Stir in the stock, ginger and garlic.
Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a wok or large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the mixed vegetables and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
Add the noodles to the pan and stir-fry for 1 minute. Mix in the soy mixture and cook for a further 2 minutes until the sauce is boiling and has thickened. Remove from the heat.
Beat the egg with 1 teaspoon of water and a little seasoning. Heat the remaining oil in a small frying pan, pour in the egg and cook, stirring lightly with a fork, until it is browned and set.
Loosen the edges of the omelette and slide it onto a chopping board. Roll it up and cut it into thin slices. Spoon the noodles and vegetables into warmed bowls and top with the omelette strips.
