A chilled bowl of soba noodles is considered a refreshing snack in Japan. This salad version is bulked up with crunchy broad beans, juicy mango and slivers of rare veal.
Method
Marinate the veal in 1 tbsp miso paste, 1 tbsp soy sauce and 1
tbsp rice wine. Set aside for 30 minutes.
Prepare the soba noodles according to the instructions on the
pack, and run under cold water to stop from cooking further. Chill
in the refrigerator.
Shell the broad beans and blanch in boiling water for 3
minutes, then set aside to cool.
Remove the skin of the mango and slice into thin slivers.
Chop the spring onions into fine diagonal slices.
Flash fry the veal in olive oil on high heat for 1 minute
either side. Set aside to rest.
Prepare a salad dressing from 1 tbsp miso paste, 1 tbsp sesame
oil and 1 tsp sugar.
Slice the veal into small pieces, and toss with all the other
ingredients and the salad dressing.
