Method
Heat Frying pan on a medium heat. Rub oil into the steak and season with generously.
Fry the steak on one side for 2-3 minutes until a crust forms.
Turn the steak and fry on the other side until browned, then add a knob of butter, melting it until it goes a nut brown colour.
Add garlic and thyme to the pan and baste the butter over the steak with a spoon, for 2 minutes.
Check the steak using a food thermometer. You're looking for a temperature of 54-57 degrees at the thickest part of the steak.
Remove the steak from the pan and put to one side to rest.
To make the Sauce
Fry the Mouli in the frying pan, fry for one minute then add the garlic, ginger, chilli, and lime zest. Add the noodles and toss everything together. Add the sweet chilli sauce and squeeze in the lime juice, add the herbs and toss together.
Place onto a plate, slice the steak and place on the top.
