beef with pak choi, mushrooms and noodles

main courses | serves 1
Boil the kettle and soak the noodles in the boiling water according to the packet instructions. Meanwhile rub the beef with olive oil, sprinkle with the cumin and a pinch of salt and rub all over. Place in a really hot frying pan and sear on all sides. Add the onion, ginger and chilli and cook for a couple of minutes, then add the mushrooms, stock and pak choi. Drain the noodles and add them to the pan. Stir around, and correct the seasoning. Slice up the beef and serve the noodles and pak choi in a big bowl, with the beef slices on top. Pour over the broth from the pan.

1. MidnightChef Wed 25 Nov 2009 @ 06:34 I personally wouldnt try to substitute pak/bok choi with spinach, the only thing similar is the colour! Flavourwise pak choi is more like lettuce than it would be spinach! It adds a plain green vegetable to the dish that has wonderful flavour soaking qualities.

@Mara check with your grocer, they may be able to get it for you. Its a common staple to get at any asian type grocer as well. I can't see it being close to the same flavour dish if you tried to use spinach.
