# Ingredients:

→ Broth

01 - A chunk of ginger, about 5-6cm, sliced
02 - 1 shallot, cut into quarters
03 - 3 whole garlic cloves, peeled
04 - 1 carrot, roughly sliced into chunks
05 - 2 spring onions, cut into pieces
06 - 1 tablespoon of miso paste
07 - 1 tablespoon sesame oil
08 - 1 tablespoon gochujang
09 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce
10 - 1 tablespoon sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
11 - 600ml high-quality beef stock

→ Toppings

12 - 2 sirloin steaks
13 - 200g rice noodles
14 - 1 egg
15 - 1 pak choi, split in half lengthwise
16 - A handful of shiitake mushrooms, sliced
17 - A red chili, finely sliced
18 - A few sprigs of fresh coriander
19 - 1 teaspoon of black sesame seeds
20 - 1 teaspoon soy sauce
21 - 1 teaspoon sweet soy sauce
22 - 1 tablespoon crispy shallots (if you want)
23 - 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)

# Instructions:

01 - Put everything for the broth into a large pot on medium heat. Let it bubble away gently for 30 minutes to an hour, stirring now and then. The longer it stews, the richer the taste.
02 - Place an egg in a small pot filled with cold water. Heat it up until it boils, then cook for exactly 6 minutes. Plunge into ice water right after and peel when the shell is cool enough to handle.
03 - In a pan over medium heat, fry the mushrooms and pak choi until they get a lovely golden color. Take them out and set aside.
04 - Get a pan really hot, then fry the steaks for 1-2 minutes on each side. Let them rest on a plate for around 3 minutes.
05 - Follow the packet's instructions to cook the noodles. Once they're done, drain them well.
06 - Strain the broth. Share the noodles evenly into bowls and ladle over the hot broth. Add slices of steak, halved egg, pak choi, and mushrooms on top.
07 - Sprinkle over sliced chili, crispy shallots, fresh coriander, spring onions, and some sesame seeds. Drizzle with sesame oil if you'd like.

# Notes:

01 - A popular pick at Gordon Ramsay's Academy
02 - Letting the broth simmer longer makes the flavors bolder
03 - Great for a fancy lunch or evening meal
