Tahini and Gochujang Noodle Broth with Turkey

1. First make the broth. Add the tahini, 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce and the gochujang to a large saucepan over a low heat and gradually whisk in the just-boiled water. Cook gently until heated through, and smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.

2. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large sauté pan over a medium–high heat. Add the mince or finely chopped meat and cook for 6–8 minutes, breaking it down into small pieces with a spatula, until browned in places and starting to crisp, then scoop it out with a slotted spoon
into a bowl and set aside.

3. To the same pan, add the remaining oil and the mushrooms and cook
over a medium–high heat, stirring often, for 3 minutes until softened and starting to turn golden. Add the spring onions and mangetout and cook for another 2–3 minutes until just tender. Return the meat to the pan and toss through the vegetables with the remaining soy sauce and heat through briefly.

4. Add the noodles to the pan with the creamy tahini broth, stir to combine with the liquid, then heat through briefly over a low–medium heat. Transfer the hot noodle broth to serving bowls. Spoon the mince and vegetable mixture on top and serve with lime wedges for squeezing over, the extra spring onions, sesame seeds and a drizzle of chilli oil.
