In a wok, heat the sesame oil and fry thin slices of aubergine until soft and browning. Drain the soaked mushrooms and add to the pan, keeping the soaking liquid.



 Step 3 

In the meantime, peel carrots and cucumber into ribbons and put into a large bowl. Add the sliced spring onions and radishes.



 Step 4 

Soak the rice noodles as per packet instructions and cool under running water then dress with sesame oil and lime juice and add to the mixing bowl.



 Step 5 

Whisk up the agave syrup, rice vinegar, lime juice, chopped chilli, garlic and ginger with a splash of the mushroom soaking liquid. Add the dressing to the pan with mushrooms and aubergines and reduce slightly to become thick and sticky.



 Step 6 

Pile into the bowl with rice noodles and vegetables and serve topped with peanuts, fresh chopped coriander, lime juice and optional extra sliced red chillies.
