Method

  1. Use a spiraliser to make the courgetti or slice into thin strands. Toss with the fish sauce, rice vinegar, sugar and a pinch of salt. Chill for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the oven to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4 and roast the peanuts with the sesame seeds until golden. Cool.
  2. Heat a griddle pan. Rub the black vinegar (from Waitrose and Asian shops) and a splash of oil into the steaks. Season, fry for 2 minutes on each side (medium-rare), then rest.
  3. Squeeze the courgettes in a new folded J-cloth, discard any excess liquid, then toss in a bowl with the peanuts and sesame seeds. Slice the steaks and the chillies, then stir into the ‘noodles’ with the bunch coriander leaves.

I made a Slimming World version of this- it was absolutely delicious- my first try at courgetti and I’ll definitely do it again!

I love this recipe because it’s a great way to get more tasty veg into my diet! I’ve never been a fan of ‘carb-cutting’ for the sake of losing weight …but when the replacements are as ‘delicious’ as this then who can complain!
