Ginger Hoisin Beef And Scallions On Crispy Noodle Cakes Recipes

HOISIN BEEF WITH CRISPY NOODLE CAKE

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, coat the steak with the hoisin sauce and some black pepper. Leave to marinate while you make the noodle cake.
• Mix all the ingredients (apart from the oil) for the noodle cake with some black pepper in a medium-sized bowl. Heat half the oil in a medium-sized, non-stick frying pan (or omelette pan). Tip in the eggy mixture and cook over a medium heat for about 3-4 mins until golden. Turn over - the easiest way is to put a flat plate on top of the frying pan - invert to release the cake, then slide back in. Cook for another 3-4 mins, then slide out and keep warm in a low oven while you cook the steak.
• Give the pan a quick wipe and heat the rest of the oil. Cook the steak for about 2-3 mins each side (depending on the thickness of your steak) for medium-rare, or longer for well done. Rest for a couple of mins, then serve in slices, scattered with the mint and radish, with the noodle cake.

GINGER-SCALLION RAMEN NOODLES

Steps:

• Toss ginger, garlic, and two-thirds of the scallions in a large bowl to combine. Heat grapeseed oil in a small saucepan over high until hot and shimmering but not smoking, about 2 minutes. Immediately pour hot oil over aromatics. The scallions will sizzle, turn bright green, and wilt almost immediately. Let sit 5 minutes.
• Mix soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, pepper, sugar, and remaining scallions into oil mixture; season with salt. Let sit 15 minutes for flavors to meld. Taste sauce and season with more salt if needed.
• Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions; drain.
• Toss noodles in a large bowl with as much or little sauce as you'd like. Divide among bowls and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve with chili oil alongside.
