Method

Preheat the oven to gas 7, 200°C, fan 190°C. Bake the Chicken-Free Dippers on a nonstick baking tray for 12-15 mins until golden and crisp.
To make the sauce, whisk the pineapple juice (it should measure 100ml; if not, top up with a little water) with the cornflour, ketchup, sugar, soy and vinegar.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok. Add the peppers, spring onions and cashews and stir-fry for 2-3 mins until golden at the edges. Add the garlic, fry for 1 min more, then add the sugarsnaps. Pour in the sauce and pineapple chunks and bubble for 2-3 mins until the sauce has thickened and the vegetables are tender.
Meanwhile, heat the noodles according to pack instructions. Divide between shallow bowls.
Stir the dippers through the sauce to coat. Serve immediately with the noodles.
