Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Cook udon noodles over medium-high heat until tender, 3-4 minutes. • In last minute of cook time, gently stir noodles with a fork to separate. • Drain, rinse and set aside.
• Roughly chop Asian greens and spring onion. Drain the sweetcorn. • Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook spring onion and sweetcorn, until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are “popping” out.
• In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, sweet soy seasoning, fine breadcrumbs, the egg and a pinch of pepper. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of beef mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate. • Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat with a generous drizzle of olive oil. Cook meatballs, turning, until browned and cooked through, 6-8 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). ~~~~~~~~~~ MODULAR STEP ~~~~~~~~~~ Custom Recipe: If you've doubled your beef mince, prep as above and cook in batches. Return all meatballs to the pan before the next step.
• Add garlic paste to the meatballs and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add oyster sauce, beef-style stock powder, the sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar and the water, then bring to the boil.
• Add cooked noodles and Asian greens and simmer until just wilted, 2-3 minutes.
• Divide pho-style beef meatball soup between bowls. Top with charred corn and spring onion. • Tear over coriander and sprinkle with crispy shallots. Serve with sriracha. Enjoy!
