Cumin Spiced Sirloin on Lime and Pepper Noodles and Beansprouts



Cooking time: 7-10 mins
Prep time: 1-2 mins 
This meal was good and exceptionally easy. I am always looking out for deals, and ways to cook posh food at student-y prices. I found some thin cut sirloin steaks in the 3 for £10 meat offer at Tesco and it seemed too good to say no to. I had a few pre-made items in, like the Thai Dressing but lime juice should be fine and about as quick to knock up.

 Ingredients (For 1):
  • 2 Tesco Thin Cut Sirloin Steaks (there's 4 in a pack so you can do this twice or do it for 2)
  • 1 150g pack of Amoy Straight To Wok Udon Noodles
  • A handful of Beansprouts (add however much you like in your stir fry, I added about the same amount as there was noodles)
  • A good splash of Waitrose Fragrant Thai Dressing (to knock up something similar, a good bit of Lime Juice, Chilli Flakes and some Red Pepper should do the trick)
  • Cumin
  • About a tablespoon of Olive/Vegetable oil (I used extra virgin olive oil because that's all I had in)
  • A few bits of Chive to garnish (Spring Onion will do just as well)
Steps:
  1. Heat the oil up in a pan or wok on a high heat, then chuck the beansprouts in. Fry these for about 3 minutes.
  2. Add the noodles and add a healthy amount of dressing (or lime juice etc.), give it a good mix and let it cook for a minute or two
  3. Serve the noodles and beansprouts onto a plate
  4. Add extra oil if the pan has run out then add the steaks, sprinkling a little cumin on each one, sealing them for 1 minute on each side then cooking for however tender you want your steak (I did mine for an extra minute to get it Medium...ish)
  5. Chuck your steak on top of your noodles & beansprouts and enjoy.
