Ingredients

  • 50g vermicelli rice noodles
  • 1 midi cucumber
  • 75g radishes, trimmed and thinly sliced
  • 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp sushi ginger, finely chopped
  • 240g pack No.1 Yellowfin Tuna Steaks
  • 1 tsp sunflower oil
  • 1 tsp black, white or mixed sesame seeds
  • 1 punnet Essential Salad Cress

For the dressing

  • 1 tbsp Cooks’ Ingredients Mirin Rice Wine
  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 lime, juice
  • 1 tsp wasabi, to taste

Method

  1. Place the noodles into a heatproof bowl, cover with boiling water and set aside for 10-12 minutes until softened. Drain and cool. Meanwhile, mix together the dressing ingredients and set aside.

  2. Using a vegetable peeler, slice the cucumber into ribbons. Toss with the cooled noodles, radishes, chilli and pickled ginger

  3. Heat a frying pan. Brush the tuna with the oil, sprinkle with sesame seeds, then cook for 2-41/2 minutes on each side, until nicely browned and the centre is cooked to your liking, from pink to well done.

  4. Divide the salad between 2 shallow bowls, then top with the tuna. Pour on the dressing and scatter over the cress.

Cook’s tip

The wasabi adds a wonderful, warming kick to the dressing, but if you don’t have any to hand, try adding a little English mustard.
