For the kimchi, combine cabbage, spring onion and carrot in a bowl. Combine salt with 1.5L (6 cups) water in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to the boil, then stir for 1-2 minutes until salt dissolves. Remove from heat and pour over cabbage mixture.

3.

Soak the noodles in boiling water for 5 minutes or until soft, then drain.

Heat a wok or large frypan over high heat until almost smoking. Add sesame oil and beef, then cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add soy sauce and cook for a further 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

To serve, divide the noodles among 4 bowls and top with the beef, kimchi and extra spring onion.
