Method
step 1
Drizzle the tuna with 1 tbsp sesame oil and season. Roll in the sesame seeds until coated. Heat a non-stick frying pan to very hot. Sear the tuna on both sides and chill until using.
step 2
Boil the noodles in salted water until al dente. Drain and rinse extremely well in cold water. If not using straightaway, leave in a bowl of cold water for up to 1 hour. Drain well.
step 3
Divide the noodles between 4 shallow bowls or dishes. Arrange the cucumber and spring onions over. Mix the dressing ingredients together with the remaining sesame oil. Slice the tuna and divide between the plates. Pour the dressing over and sprinkle with loose sesame seeds.
