Thin rice stick noodles are super quick to cook however, they are fairly fragile so if you are planning on some rough back country riding, this might not be the best option.Tucked into a topbox on the tarmac and they make a great base for a speedy stir-fry, ready in less than 15 minutes.

100g packet vermicelli noodles
300g rump steak, sliced into strips
150g button mushroom, thinly sliced
1 bunch of tender-stem broccoli, cut into 5cm pieces
