Step-by-Step Instructions

Heat a non-stick griddle or large frying pan over high heat. Season the sirloin steaks with salt and rub with a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, then transfer to a plate and cover with baking parchment to rest.

Meanwhile, cook the buckwheat noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and submerge them in a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process and prevent clumping.

Heat the sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Add the grated ginger, crushed garlic, and chilli flakes, cooking for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Toss in the sliced spring onions and halved pak choi. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables just begin to wilt.

Add the honey, rice wine vinegar, and brown rice miso to the wok. Drain the noodles and add them to the pan along with the black sesame seeds. Toss thoroughly to coat the noodles in the sauce and heat through.
