Chinese Turkey Kebabs with Noodles and Beansprouts

Turkey, naturally low in fat, tastes really good with this Chinese sauce.  Noodles are a good starch alternative to rice or pasta.  The low calorie value also makes this a good choice for slimmers.

What you need:                                                                                                 

•450g/1 lb turkey fillets, cut in strips                                                 
•    3 tablespoons dark soy sauce                                                           
•    1 tablespoon tomato puree                                                               
•    2 teaspoons sugar
•    150ml/ ¼ pint hot chicken or vegetable stock
•    275g/10 oz egg noodles
•    100g/4 oz beansprouts

Preparation: 10 minutes
Cooking: 10 minutes
Freezing: no
Serves: 4

What you do:
In a bowl mix together the soy sauce, tomato puree and sugar.  Then pour half into a saucepan with the stock.  Add the turkey strips to the remaining sauce in the bowl and stir to coat well.  Thread the turkey strips on to 8 skewers, making a sigzag turkey pattern.  Grill or barbecue for about 6-8 minutes, turning every now and then, until evenly and thoroughly cooked.  Meanwhile, put the noodles into a large saucepan, cover with boiling water, bring to the boil and simmer as directed on the packet.  Bring the tomato sauce and stock to the boil, add the beansprouts and gently simmer for a few minutes.  Drain the noodles, then add to the sauce and toss well.  Divide between warmed plates (2 kebabs on each).  Serve immediately with a tomato or other salad of your choice.

Note:  This Chinese sauce can also be used on other meats and white fish.
