Ingredients

  • 100 pasta 
  • tsp unrefined sunflower oil 
  • 125 broccoli cut into short lengths (or Tenderstem)
  • 100 sugar snap peas halved
  •  spring onion cut into short lengths
  • tbsp soya sauce reduced-salt
  • 175 rump steak lean thinly sliced
  • tsp sesame seed 
  • tbsp clear honey 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • wok

Directions

  1. Cook the noodles in boiling salted water until just tender, then drain and rinse in cold water.
  2. Heat half the oil in a non-stick wok.
  3. Add the broccoli, peas and 2 tbsp water, then cover and steamfry for 3 mins.
  4. Remove the lid, add the spring onions and stir-fry for 2 mins, adding a splash more water if needed to cook the veg.
  5. Add the noodles and half the soy sauce and toss with the veg. Divide between 2 bowls and keep warm.
  6. Wipe out the wok and heat the remaining oil until smoking. Tip in the beef and stir-fry for 2 mins over a high heat, but dont move it around too much initially or it will release liquid and stew rather than fry. Tip in the sesame seeds, cook for 1 min more, then add the honey. Toss to coat the beef well, then add the remaining soy and bubble briefly. Spoon over the vegetables and noodles and serve immediately.
