A SEA OF COLOUR
Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the grated garlic and the grated ginger. Fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, shifting constantly. Add 10ml of a sweetener of choice and a splash of water. Mix until the sweetener is fully dissolved. Add the soy sauce, ½ the toasted sesame seeds, ½ the chopped coriander, and seasoning. Remove from the heat and add the cooked noodles, the sliced cabbage, and the Cucumber matchsticks. Remove from the pan and set aside.
TASTY TUNA
Pat the tuna dry with paper towel. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the tuna for 30-60 seconds per side until seared. Remove from the pan on completion and season. Allow to rest for 2 minutes before slicing.
