Spicy Salmon Noodles
Gluten-free option
Use rice noodles and a gluten-free stock cube We have checked the ingredients as written, but we are not dietitians and brands vary — stock cubes, sauces, oats and spice mixes can all contain gluten. Please check every label, especially if you have coeliac disease.
These noodles take mere minutes to throw together, and you can pad them out with veg to make them go further and ramp up their nutritional value – you can sometimes add a cupful of those small, diced, mixed frozen vegetables and some extra peas, too. Don’t be put off by the jar of salmon paste suggestion; it is a surprisingly versatile ingredient in speedy budget cookery, and it works well here.

- Stir well to combine, then cover and cook on a vigorous simmer for 4 minutes.
- Add the noodles and the edamame or peas and replace the lid.
- Continue to cook for 6 minutes at a slightly less vigorous simmer, then turn off the heat.
