Ingredients

Lean beef fillet

360 g, (buy 450g), fat trimmed

Canola oil

1 tbs

Miso paste

⅓ cup(s), (100g)

Soy sauce

2 tbs, (tamari)

Soba noodles 100% buckwheat

180 g

Snow peas

250 g, halved diagonally

Asparagus

2 bunch(es), cut into 4cm pieces

Bok choy

1 bunch(es), (baby), quartered

Ginger, pickled

40 g, (2tbs)

Nori, seaweed, dried

½ piece(s), finely shredded

Instructions

  1. Season beef with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Cook beef, turning occasionally, for 4 minutes or until browned. Using tongs, transfer to a plate. Reduce heat to medium. Add 2L (8 cups) water to pan with miso and tamari and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat until barely simmering and return beef to pan. Poach for 20 minutes for medium rare or until cooked to your liking (see note). Using tongs, transfer beef to a plate. Cover with foil and set aside to rest for 10 minutes before slicing thinly.
  2. Meanwhile, bring poaching liquid to the boil. Add noodles and cook for 2 minutes or until tender. Add snow pea, asparagus and bok choy and cook for 1 minute or until bright green and tender.
  3. Serve noodles and broth topped with beef, pickled ginger and nori.

Notes

This beef is cooked to medium rare. For medium-well done, poach for a further 10 minutes. However, remember the beef will continue to cook when you add it to the hot broth in the serving bowls.
