Step 1Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Add the noodles and cook according to pack instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool. Set aside.

Step 3Heat 1tbsp vegetable oil in a large frying pan or wok over high heat and brown the beef, in batches, for 2-3min. Remove to a plate.

Step 5Add the drained noodles along with beef and gochujang sauce to the pan or wok. Stir-fry until everything is well coated in the sauce, about 1-2min. Stir through bean sprouts and cook for 30sec. Check seasoning and scatter over sesame seeds, if using. Serve immediately.
