Preparation
Toast the sesame seeds
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the sesame seeds and toast, stirring often, 2 to 3 min., until golden brown. Transfer to a small bowl. Wipe out and reserve the pan.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, thinly slice the string peas crosswise. Separate the lettuce leaves. Juice the lime. In a second small bowl, make the dipping sauce by combining the sweet chili sauce, ½ the lime juice and a drizzle of oil.
Boil the noodles
In a large heatproof bowl, combine the noodles and boiling water; stir gently to separate. Let sit for 3 to 4 min. until al dente. Drain, rinse under cold water and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Cook & glaze the patties
Meanwhile, season the patties with ¾ of the spices. Crumble the patties. In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium. Add the crumbled patties and cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 5 min., until beginning to brown. Add the hoisin and cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until glazed.
Season the carrots & string peas
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the carrots, string peas, remaining lime juice and spices, 2 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the noodles between your bowls. Top with the lettuce, crumbled patties, carrots and string peas. Garnish with the sesame seeds. Serve the dipping sauce on the side. Bon appétit!
