Thai-style Somen Noodles With Fish Sauce

I wanted to try another Cookpad recipe that called for pork and Chinese chives, but I only had ground pork. (Rats!) But I decided go to go through with cooking anyway, and it turned out delicious!

The soup/sauce is mixed with the somen noodles so it should be very well flavored. The soup prevents the somen noodles from sticking together. You can omit the lemon juice if you like, but the flavor is much better with it added in. For 3-4 servings. Recipe by Love lunch sato
