OODLES OF NOODLES
Boil the kettle. Fill a pot for the noodles with boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and place over high heat. Once boiling rapidly, cook the noodles for 7-8 minutes until al dente. Drain and toss through some oil to prevent sticking.
DRESSED FOR DINNER
In a bowl, combine the dressing with 1 tbsp of a sweetener of choice, and ½ the chilli flakes (to taste). Add the cucumber pieces and toss until coated. Set aside to marinate.
PREP STEP
Peel and cut ½ the onion into wedges. Peel and grate the garlic. Finely slice the cabbage. Pat the steak dry with paper towel and season.
SSSIZZLING STEAK
Place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the steak and fry for 5-6 minutes in total, shifting and turning as it colours, or until browned and cooked to your preference. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 4-5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
APPETIZING AROMAS
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the onion wedges. Fry for 4-5 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. Add the sliced cabbage and fry for 2-3 minutes until starting to soften, shifting occasionally. Add the grated garlic and fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, shifting constantly. Remove from the heat and add the cooked noodles, and the teriyaki sauce. Mix until combined. Season to taste.
WELL DONE, CHEF!
