Method

Mix the radishes in a bowl with the lime juice and a pinch of salt. Set aside to lightly pickle.
Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger and fry for 1 minute. Stir in the mock duck, hoisin, vinegar and 100ml water, then bring to a simmer. Set aside.
Cook the noodles according to the pack instructions. Toss the noodles with the sauce and duck, then pile into 4 ramen-style bowls. Top with the spring onions, carrot, cucumber, drained radishes and an egg (if using). Serve sprinkled with the sesame seeds and chilli oil if you like
