### Ingredients

 * 1 Onion -chopped
 * 1 tsp Garlic -minced or chopped finely
 * 200 grams Rice Noodle
 * 2 tsp Curry powder-(depending on taste)
 * 1 cup Frozen Vegetables
 * 2 cups Cabbage -(optional)
 * 500 grams Beef Mince-lean

[[

### Directions

 * In a frypan, fry off the onion and garlic until starting to brown, add the mince
   and brown well.
 * Add the frozen vegies and cabbage and put the lid on the frypan for 5 minutes
   or so until they are tender.
 * Meanwhile, boil the kettle and prepare the rice noodles according to their instructions–
   slightly under-cook them.
 * Add the curry powder one teaspoon at a time until you like the taste (the more
   you add, the tastier it is – but kiddies might not like it too ‘hot’). Stir through
   the noodles.

[[

### Notes

 * **Beef Chow Mein** freezes really well – even with the noodles. Freeze for up
   to three months.
 * Seal in ziplock bags for up to four months.
 * Serve in a lettuce leaf or on its own.
