Instructions: If using spaghetti, cook it in boiling water until just tender, then drain and toss in a tablespoon of olive oil to stop it sticking together. No need to prepare the oil noodles.

Heat the oil in a wok or frying pan and fry the garlic, onion, cabbage, celery, potato and prawns or chicken. Add the noodles and stir fry for 10 minutes more.

Make a gap in the centre of the noodles and add the egg. Stir it in to scramble it. Add the chilli, tomato, tomato ketchup, soy sauce, salt and sugar. Stir well.

Just before transferring to a plate, add the beansprouts and stir for about 30 seconds.

Sprinkle with lemon juice and chopped coriander to serve.
