Equipment

  • Large pot to boil noodles
  • Grill pan (or saute pan) for steak

Ingredients
  

  • 350 g steak (flank or ribeye)
  • 2 tbsp mirin (can substitute with apple cider vinegar)
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 packet ramen-style instant noodles
  • 1 packet udon-style instant noodles
  • salt
  • pepper
  • green onions, sliced for garnish
  • sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your grill pan to high heat. It needs to be quite hot.
  • Pat the steaks dry. Salt and pepper them before adding them to a bowl with the mirin and sesame oil. Mix well.
  • When grill is sizzling hot, throw the steaks on it. Cook for about 8 minutes, turning every 2 minutes or so. You want them rare-ish because they will cook further in the noodles.
    When they are cooked, put under foil and let them rest.
  • Bring 5 cups of water to a boil and cook the noodles according to package instructions (should be for 2 minutes).
    Take half the water out. Add the spices from the packaging. Mix for 2 min.
  • Slice the steak and dump the steak with its juices in the pot. Mix well and serve in bowls with green onions and sesame seeds on top.
