Preparation
Mise en place
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Remove the stem ends of the green beans. Remove the stem ends of the string peas; pull off the tough string that runs the length of each pod.
Cook the pork
In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the pork*; season with S&P. Cook, breaking up the meat, 4 to 6 min., until cooked through. Transfer to a bowl, leaving any browned bits in the pan. Reserve the pan.
Boil the noodles
Meanwhile, add the noodles to the pot of boiling water; stir gently to separate. Boil, 1 to 3 min., until al dente. Drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Cook the vegetables
In a second large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the green beans, string peas and S&P. Sauté, 2 to 3 min., until beginning to soften. Add 1 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) and ⅓ of the garlic. Cook, partially covered, 1 to 2 min., until crisp-tender; season with ½ the mild furikake.
Combine the noodles & serve
In the reserved pan, heat 4 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) on medium-high. Add the remaining garlic and sauté, 1 to 2 min., until beginning to brown; season with S&P. Add the soy sauce, vinegar and ⅓ cup water (double for 4 portions). Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until thickened. Add the noodles and pork. Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until the noodles and pork are coated and combined. Divide the noodles between your bowls. Garnish with the remaining mild furikake. Serve the vegetables on the side. Bon appétit!
