Korean Inspired Sesame Rump Steak Ramen

Add the garlic, ginger puree and gochujang to the mushrooms. Stir-fry for 1 min.

Pour in the water for the broth, sugar (see pantry for both amounts), ketjap manis and two thirds of the soy sauce. Stir well to combine. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 8-10 mins.

Meanwhile, trim the cucumber, then pop onto a board and use a rolling pin to gently smack it a few times until split. Cut into roughly 2cm chunks.

In a medium bowl, combine the smacked cucumber with the sugar for the dressing (see pantry for amount), the remaining soy sauce, half the lime juice, half the sriracha and half the sesame seeds. Set aside. 

Pour the boiled water from your kettle into a medium saucepan with ½ tsp salt and bring to the boil. Add the noodles and cook until tender, 4 mins.

Once cooked, drain in a sieve and run under cold water to stop them sticking together.

Refill and boil your kettle. Pour the boiled water into the (now empty) saucepan and bring to the boil.

Boil the eggs (see pantry for amount) for 7-8 mins. Drain and allow to cool. IMPORTANT: Ensure egg whites are fully cooked.

Pop the Tenderstem® broccoli onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. When the oven is hot, roast on the middle shelf until tender and crispy, 10-12 mins.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. Season the steaks with salt and pepper.

Once very hot, lay the steaks into the pan and fry until browned and medium-rare, about 5 mins. Turn halfway through. TIP: Cook each side for 1 min more if you like it more well done.

Once cooked, transfer to a board, cover with foil and allow to rest for a couple of mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. The steak is safe to eat when browned on the outside.

Once the eggs have cooled slightly, peel away the shells. Slice each egg in half lengthways. 

Thinly slice the steak widthways.

Taste the broth and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add an extra pinch of sugar or squeeze of lime juice if needed.
