Before you start

  • 1x large non-stick frying pan
  • 1x saucepan

Get prepping

  • Peel the onions and cut each into 8 wedges. Deseed the peppers and thickly slice, then peel and crush the garlic. Finely grate the ginger.
  • Trim the pak choi and cut into bite-size pieces.

Raise the steaks

  • On a separate board, trim any visible fat from the steaks, then thinly slice against the grain.
  • Spritz a large non-stick frying pan with cooking spray and put it over a high heat. Fry the steak for 4-5 mins until browned all over.
  • Drizzle over a quarter of the tamari and cook for 1 min, tossing to coat the steak strips, then transfer to a plate.

Create a stir (fry)!

  • Return the frying pan to a high heat and tip in the onions, peppers and a splash of water. Cook for 2-3 mins.
  • Add the pak choi and mangetout. Fry for 2-3 mins, then stir in the garlic, ginger and the chilli flakes (to taste) and cook for 2 mins.
  • Sprinkle in the remaining tamari and all the vinegar, then return the steak and any juices to the pan. Cook for 3-4 mins, stirring to coat everything, until the sauce reduces slightly (add a splash of water to thin it if needed).

Sort the noodles

  • Meanwhile, cook the noodles in boiling water for 3-4 mins. Drain, then rinse.

Dish up

  • Thinly slice the spring onions.
  • Stir the noodles into the stir-fry, then scatter over the sliced spring onions and serve.
