Beef satay noodles

Beef satay is a satisfying classic and a perfect midweek dinner. As this is a nutty flavoured dish it’s good to stir-fry with peanut oil.

Ingredients

250 gram dried thin egg noodles

2 tablespoon peanut oil

1 long red chilli, seeds removed (if you prefer) and finely chopped

1 tablespoon finely grated ginger

1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter

2 tablespoon light soy sauce

1/2 tablespoon finely grated palm sugar

3/4 cup water

1 tablespoon fish sauce

1 cup coconut milk

450 gram sirloin steak, trimmed of fat

sea salt

1 large onion, cut into thin wedges

1 bunch bunch broccolini, cut into bite-size pieces

3 clove garlic, minced

1 carrot, peeled and cut into ribbons with a vegetable peeler

125 gram beansprouts

handful coriander leaves

Method

1.Place noodles in a bowl, cover with boiling water and leave for 5 minutes until almost tender. Separate with a fork then drain and rinse under cold water.

2.Heat 1 Tbsp of the oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook chilli and ginger for 2 minutes. Add peanut butter, soy sauce, palm sugar, water, fish sauce and coconut milk. Whisk to combine. Reduce heat to low.

3.Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in wok or frying pan. Season steak with sea salt and cracked black pepper and cook for 1 minute on each side for medium rare. Transfer to board to rest. (The beef may look rare after you’ve fried it but once sliced and stirred through the noodles, it will continue to cook.)

4.Cook onion and broccolini in frying pan for 2 minutes. Add garlic and carrot. Cook for 2 minutes. Add noodles and most of peanut sauce. Simmer for 1 minute.
