Despite the name, there's no booze in this recipe, but it's said to pair perfectly with an ice-cold beer. We'll raise a pint to that - cheers! See method

Method

Toss the pork with the cornflour in a bowl. Season with black pepper; set aside.
Cook the noodles to pack instructions. Drain well and rinse under cold water to cool; set aside.
Meanwhile, mix the soy, fish and oyster sauces with the sugar and set aside. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan or wok over a high heat until smoking. Add the pork and stir-fry for 4-5 mins until golden and cooked through. You may need to do this in batches. Transfer to a plate.
Heat the remaining oil in the pan and add the onion, ginger, garlic and chopped chillies. Stir-fry for 3-4 mins, then add the baby corn and courgette. Cook for 3-5 mins over a medium-high heat until the veg start to soften, adding a splash of water to help the veg cook through.
Add the sauce to the pan with the noodles, pork and any juices. Stir-fry for 1-2 mins. Scatter with sliced chillies and basil, then serve with lime wedges to squeeze over.

Tip: If you can't find rice stick noodles, substitute with tagliatelle
