Ingredients

  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 bunch bunch salad onions, finely sliced
  • 4 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 500g pack British lean beef mince 5% fat
  • 250g medium egg noodles
  • 1 head broccoli, cut into small bitesized pieces
  • 2 tbsp Cooks’ Ingredients Gochujang Paste (or sriracha)
  • 2 tbsp Japanese rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp light soy sauce

Method

  1. Put the garlic and salad onion whites into a small, heatproof bowl. Heat the oil in a large frying pan until hot and shimmering, then carefully pour over the garlic and salad onions so it sizzles.

  2. Return the pan to the heat with 1 tbsp onion-infused oil. Add the mince and fry for 8 minutes, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until nice and crisp and cooked through with no pink meat and juices that run clear.

  3. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, then add the noodles and broccoli. Stir, then turn off the heat and allow to stand for 6 minutes. Drain, reserving a cup of cooking water, then return to the pan.

  4. Mix the gochujang, rice vinegar and soy into the remaining garlic and onion oil. Stir 1 tbsp through the crispy beef and loosen with a splash of cooking water. Stir the remaining sauce through the noodles and broccoli in the noodle pan and mix well, adding a little more water if needed. Serve in bowls, topped with the beef and scattered with green parts of the salad onions.

Cook’s tip

Make a double batch of this tasty sauce and store in the fridge for up to a week, to add umami oomph to all sorts of meals.
