Ingredients

  • 110 g Edamame noodles
  • 220 g Beef sirloin
  • 150 g Bok choy
  • ½ tsp Sichuan peppercorn
  • 6 g Shiso (perilla) leaves
  • 2 tsp Chinkiang black vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Toasted sesame oil
  • 1 Thai chilies (optional)
  • 10 g Ginger (optional)
  • 2 tsp Japanese soy sauce (koikuchi shoyu) (optional)
  • 5 g Sesame seeds (optional)

Method

  1. Take the sirloin out of the fridge and season it. Toast the sichuan peppercorns in a dry pan until they smell citrussy, then crush them coarsely. Split the pak choi, ring the chilli, grate the ginger and shred the shiso.
  2. Sear the sirloin in half the sesame oil over the highest flame, two and a half minutes a side for rare, then move it to a board to rest.
  3. While the beef rests, drop the pak choi, ginger and chilli into the same pan with the soy and black vinegar and turn them for three minutes, until the stems soften and the vinegar has gone syrupy.
  4. Boil the edamame noodles four minutes in unsalted water and drain, keeping back a splash of the water.
  5. Fold the noodles into the greens with the reserved splash, slice the beef thinly across the grain and fan it over with the board juices. Finish with the crushed sichuan pepper, the shiso and the sesame seeds.
