Sizzling Beef Steak Noodles

Begin by preparing a large saucepan of boiling salted water.

Then peel the ginger and garlic cloves and trim the scallions. Place them into a food processor along with half the cilantro, and pulse until finely chopped. Set aside for later.

Remove and discard the fat from the sirloins, then rub with salt, pepper, and Chinese five-spice. Heat a drizzle of sesame oil in a frying pan over high heat. Add the steaks and cook to your liking. 3 mins for rare, 4-5 mins for medium, and 7-8 mins for well done. Turn the steak over every minute until cooked. Then remove from the pan and place them onto a chopping board to rest.

Add the noodles to the pan of boiling water for 5 minutes or until cooked.

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of sesame oil in the frying pan used earlier on high heat, add the mushrooms and mixture from the food processor. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Then continue to stir regularly.

Once cooked and ready, use tongs to transfer the noodles straight to the frying pan. Toss well to mix, then add the hoisin sauce and the rest of the cilantro leaves, giving everything another mix.

Divide the finished stir fry between 4 bowls. Cut the steak into 1cm slices and place on top of the noodles.
