CHILLI BEEF RAMEN

Preparation Method :

• In a pestle and mortar or spice grinder, grind together the chillies, chilli sauce, coriander, garlic and 2 tablespoon of the oil.
• Rub this paste all over the beef, pressing well into the flesh. Leave to marinate for up to 1 hour.
• Heat the remaining oil in a wok or frying pan and fry the shallots until golden and crisp. Drain on kitchen paper.
• Pour boiling water over the noodles and leave to stand for 3 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
• Heat a wok or large open pan to searing temperature. Put the beef into the wok and press down with a fish slice or spatula.
• Cook for 5 minutes, then turn and cook the other side for 5 minutes, pressing down firmly, until done to your liking. Remove the beef from the wok and slice thinly.
• Divide the noodles among the serving bowls, ladle the stock over them and top with the beef. Sprinkle over the fried shallots and the chilli flakes.
• Serve immediately, accompanied by the beansprouts, coriander leaves and lime wedges, which can be added according to taste.
