instructions
1
Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce
Fill a large pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Cut off and discard the root ends of the bok choy; roughly chop. In a bowl, whisk together the tahini, soy glaze, ponzu sauce, 1/4 cup of water, and as much of the sambal oelek as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be.

Cook the beef & bok choy
In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the beef and chopped garlic. Cook, stirring frequently and breaking the meat apart with a spoon, 4 to 6 minutes, or until the beef is browned. Carefully drain off and discard any excess oil. Using a spoon, move the beef to one side of the pan. Add the sautéed aromatics and sliced bok choy to the other side of the pan. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened and the beef is cooked through. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.
3
Cook the noodles
Meanwhile, add the noodles to the pot of boiling water, stirring gently to separate. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until tender. Turn off the heat. Drain thoroughly and rinse under warm water 30 seconds to 1 minute to prevent sticking. Return to the pot; add the sesame oil and stir to thoroughly coat.
4
Finish & serve your dish
Add the cooked noodles and sauce to the pan of cooked beef and bok choy; season with salt and pepper. Cook on medium-high, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the noodles are thoroughly coated and combined. Turn off the heat. Serve the finished noodles garnished with the sesame seeds. Enjoy!
