Steps

• Step 1

  Spoon the sesame seeds onto a large plate. Evenly coat the tuna steaks with sesame oil and gently roll into the sesame seeds to full coat.

• Step 3

  Place the soba noodles in boiling water and cook for 5 minutes. Once cooked, drain and rinse under cold water. Add a teaspoon of oil and combine within the noodles before setting aside.

• Step 4

  To create the dressing, combine remaining tbsp. sesame oil, ginger rice vinegar and soy sauce and stir.

• Step 5

  Add the white cabbage, edamame beans and spring onions to the noodles along with the majority of the dressing and gently toss to combine.

• Step 6

  Spoon into 2 dishes and finish by placing the tuna steak on top. Serve with remaining dressing.
