Asian Style Tuna & Noodles

Ingredients

  • 1x bluefin tuna steak
  • 20g sesame seeds
  • 1x portion of Sainsbury’s wholegrain noodles
  • 1x Chopped spring onion for garnishing

blank

  • 2 tbsp Hilltop Welsh Blossom Honey

  • 2 tbsp dark soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp lazy garlic
  • 1 tsp lazy ginger
  • 1 tsp mirin

Directions

  1. Combine the honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic and ginger in a bowl and mix well till combined.
  2. Add 20 per cent of your sauce mixture to a small dish and add your mirin - this will be your dipping sauce OR you can pour it over your noodles when cooked.
  3. Add your tuna steak to the main mixture until well coated and sticky.
  4. Ideally you want to leave the tuna steak for 10-15 minutes for the fish to take on the flavours.
  5. On a plate, spread your sesame seeds and carefully coat your tuna steak on all sides.
  6. Heat a pan to medium heat and add a little bit of vegetable or rapeseed oil to the pan.
  7. Add your tuna steak to the pan, 3-4 mins on either side, and then leave to rest. Or longer if you like your tuna more well done.
  8. The sesame seeds will go a little bit brown as they get toasted but this is good!
  9. Leave the tuna to rest for 5 minutes - it’ll continue cooking.
  10. In a pot, add boiling water and salt, bring to the boil and add your noodles - cook for 5 mins and drain. I add the noodles to my tuna pan to get more flavour into them.
  11. Grab your favourite bowl, add your noodles, slice up your tuna and serve.
  12. Finish with fresh chopped spring onion and a drizzle of extra sesame oil. Enjoy.
