Directions

To Make

  1. Place beef and ponzu sauce into a ziplock bag and marinade for 2 hours or overnight.
  2. Mix all ponzu dressing ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.
  3. Cook soba according to package instructions. Once cooked, remove from boiling water and place into cold water for 15 secs (to prevent noodles from cooking further) and strain. Set aside.
  4. Heat up a frying pan with oil, sprinkle some salt and pepper over beef fillet, and sear the beef fillet for 2-3 mins on all sides. Then, wrap the fillet up with a foil and let it rest for 10-15 mins. Slice to 5mm thick slices.
  5. Arrange noodles into 2 plates equally, then place sliced beef on top of noodles and spoon over the ponzu dressing. Serve!

      Kitchen Knowledge

      Ponzu sauce is a citrus-based sauce commonly used in Japanese cuisine. The word ponzu originated from the Old Dutch word ‘pons’, as in ‘fruit punch’. But instead of a beverage, it’s a sour sauce made by simmering mirin, rice vinegar, dried fermented tuna flakes and seaweed; then cooled and mixed with either juice from lemon, yuzu, sudachi, daidai or kabosu (Japanese lime and small orange or grapefruit variants). Ponzu is a versatile condiment that can be used as a marinade, dressing, or dipping sauce.
