Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

If using dried rice noodles, soak them in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and toss with a dash the soy sauce.

Step 2

For the sauce, heat a large wide-based pan to medium heat and add half of the oil. Add the sliced onion and the grated garlic, ginger and finely chopped lemongrass. Cook for 2 minutes. Add the Massaman curry paste and cook for a further 1 minute, stir the paste round in the onions. Add the sliced red peppers and fry for a further 2 minutes.

Step 3

Pour in the coconut milk, hot stock and the peanut butter. Combine well, bring to the boil and simmer gently for 10 minutes while you cook the steak.

Step 4

In another large frying pan, add the remaining oil and turn the heat to high. Trim any fat from the steaks and season with salt. Lay them into the hot pan and cook for 2 mins per side for medium-rare, 3 mins per side for medium and 4 mins per side for well done. Remove the steaks from the pan and leave to rest. You will probably ned to cook them in batches.

Step 5

Season the sauce with the soy sauce and scatter over the sliced spring onions the chopped coriander and stir through the rice noodles Pour in any resting juices from the steaks and spoon into serving bowls.

Step 6

Carve the steak into thin strips, lay on top of the soup and serve with a wedge of lime.
