Method
Step 1
First mix all the spices together in a bowl. Take the steak and using your hands, rub the spices all over the meat until it is covered. Leave to marinade for as long as you are able and time permits. A couple of hours is probably optimum for full flavour but this will also work in just 20 minutes.Step 2
Next prepare your dressing by adding the garlic, ginger and chilli to a bowl. Mix to a paste and then add the fish sauce, the soya sauce, the sweet chilli sauce, the sesame oil and lastly the lime juice. Mix well.Step 3
Prepare noodles as directed on the packet. Mix all the raw vegetables together in a bowl, pouring half of the dressing on top and leave for a couple of minutes. Heat either a medium sized frying or griddle pan.Step 4
When pan is hot, brush with a little sesame oil and place the steak in the pan. Cook for approximately 2-3 mins each side for medium rare depending on how thick the steaks are and on your personal preference. Once steak is cooked to your liking, place it on a board to rest for a couple of minutes.Step 5
Meanwhile, transfer the noodles to the pan and turn over in the oil for a minute or so to absorb the wonderful flavours of the beef and the marinade. Quickly transfer to a serving dish.Step 6
Turn the vegetables over for a couple of minutes to heat though in the pan with the beef and marinade, then place carefully over the noodles. Lastly, slice the steaks and place over the vegetables. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the top and serve immediately.
