Stir Fried Noodles With Black Bean Burgers

Well I made my black bean burgers, but they didn't hold together very well, so I would suggest to make then in the shape of meat balls for better
results of presentation. I must say the flavours were all there it was a surprisingly good meal. I done this meal very spicy, as I dared to use a scotch bonnet  You can use a normal chilli with this even de seeded if you like.
