Serves: 2
Cooking time: 30 minutes + 30 minutes prep time

Ingredients:

2 tbsp Miso Tasty’s red miso paste

4cm Ginger

3 cloves Garlic

1 tbsp Belazu Sherry Vinegar

2 tsp Sesame oil – Waitrose cook’s ingredients

1 tsp Duchy Organic Maple syrup Maple Syrup

2 organic rump steaks

150g (5oz) Clearspring buckwheat soba udon noodles

2 tbsp organic Groovy Food coconut oil

100g shiitake mushrooms, halved, if large

100g organic chestnut or white cap mushrooms, sliced

2 x Borough beef bone broth

1 star anise

1 x 200g pack baby leaf greens

1 red chilli, finely sliced

2 spring onions, finely sliced

small bunch coriander, stalks chopped

Method:

Combine vinegar, sesame oil, maple syrup, garlic, ginger and miso to make a paste. Coat the steaks entirely, marinating in a plastic container with a lid for a minimum of 1 hour (overnight even better).
Remove steak from the marinade and brush off any excess. Scoop up the remaining marinade into a small bowl and put to one side, this will be added to the broth later.
Heat coconut oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook until just firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the centre, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centre should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium-rare. Remove from pan and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
Give the pan a quick wipe down to remove crispy bits of marinade then add another spoon.
While the steak is resting, gently fry the mushrooms in the remaining oil and in a saucepan cook the noodles in boiling water for 3 minutes, then immediately rinse in cold water to ensure they don’t stick together.
Combine the broth, star anise and the previously mixed paste in a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Once the broth has boiled, reduce to a simmer, add the greens and cook for 2 minutes.
Transfer broth and noodles to 2 bowls. Slice steak and place on top and garnish with finely sliced chilli, sliced spring onions and coriander.
