NOODLES
Boil the kettle. Fill a pot for the noodles with boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and place over a medium-high heat. Once boiling rapidly, cook the noodles for 7-8 minutes until al dente. Drain on completion and toss through some oil to prevent sticking.
SIZZLING STRIPS
Place a deep pan or wok over a medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. In a bowl, toss the beef strips with cornflour and seasoning. When the pan is hot, add the coated beef strips and fry for 2-4 minutes until crispy. On completion, remove and drain on paper towel.
GINGER TOSS UP
Return the pan or wok to a low-medium heat with an extra drizzle of oil if necessary. When hot, add the grated ginger and chilli flakes (to taste) and fry for 30-60 seconds, until fragrant, shifting constantly. Add the sesame soy sauce and 10ml of a sweetener of choice. Leave to simmer for 1-2 minutes, until sticky and glossy. Add the cooked beef strips and toss until coated in the sauce. Add the trimmed green beans, the carrot ribbons, and the drained noodles. Toss until fully combined and season to taste.
PLATE IT UP
Bowl up the delicious ginger beef and noodles. Garnish with any remaining chilli flakes, the rinsed coriander, and the sesame seeds. Finish off with a squeeze of lemon juice. Enjoy, Chef!
