Heat 1 tbsp of the sesame oil in a wok or non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Add the mince and break up with a wooden spoon. Move the meat around the pan while it fries for 5-7 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan if it sticks, until it’s golden and crispy.
Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil, add the mangetout and pak choi and cook for 3 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Add the remaining oil to the mince in the pan, then stir in the ginger and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the gochujang, soy and mirin, then add the udon noodles to the pan along with the mangetout and pak choi. Cook for 5 minutes, tossing regularly until everything is warmed through. Finally add the peanuts and spring onions.
Serve the pork noodles in deep bowls with lime wedges to squeeze over.
