This is such an epic dinner or great for a dinner party! You can prep it all in advance and then throw it all together just before people arrive. The miso sauce paired with the buttery rich beans is silky and flavourful. The sauce works best with glass noodles which help keep this dish light. The limey greens are also the perfect way to lift all the flavours.

Directions
Set the oven to grill fan 200 C and prep a large baking tray. Add the pak choy, spring onions, sunflower oil and season with salt and pepper. Place under the grill for 6-7 mins or until charred and cooked through. Squeeze over with lime juice.
Place noodles into a bowl and pour over with newly boiled water. Drain after 4 mins or until they are cooked through. Place into a bowl and toss through the 2 spoons sesame oil and squeeze of lime juice.
Set a small saucepan to a high heat and add the 250ml sunflower oil. When hot, add in the sliced onions. Fry for about 7-8 mins until golden and use a slotted spoon to fish them out on to some paper towel to crisp up and allow the oil to drain.
Set a large frying pan to a medium heat and add the sesame oil, garlic and ginger. Simmer gently for 2 mins to crisp up a little before pouring in the rest of the ingredients for the miso sauce. Be generous with the black pepper! Add in the butter beans and bring to a gentle simmer for 20 seconds to infuse.
Divide the noodles between two bowls and top with the miso beans. Add in the charred greens, crispy onions, coriander and sesame seeds.
