Sweet miso steak with ramen

This quick meal is a great way to serve beef.

To Prep 0:25 | To Cook 0:15 | Ingredients 9 | Difficulty EASY | Servings 4

Ingredients:

- 100g miso paste (see notes)

- 1/3 cup (80ml) mirin (see notes)

- 1/3 firmly packed cup (80g) brown sugar

- 500g beef rump, sliced

- 270g ramen noodles (see notes)

- 1 tablespoon sunflower oil

- 350g mixed Asian mushrooms

- 250g snow peas, blanched, refreshed, sliced on an angle

- 2 spring onions, thinly sliced

To Make:

Step 1

Stir miso, mirin and sugar in a bowl. Toss with beef and marinate for 15 minutes.

Step 2

Cook noodles according to packet instructions, then drain. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat oil in a large non-stick frypan over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, tossing, for 3-4 minutes until softened. Remove from pan and set aside. Add beef and marinade to the pan and cook, turning beef, for 5-6 minutes until browned and lightly caramelised. Return mushrooms to the pan with noodles and snow peas, then toss to combine. Divide among bowls and top with spring onion.

* Chef’s notes: Miso paste (made from fermented soybeans) is great in marinades and dressings as well as the classic Japanese soup. Miso, mirin (sweet rice wine) and ramen (thin egg noodles) are all from Asian food shops and selected supermarkets.
