 Adapted from Nigella Lawson

Serves 2

Ingredients:

30g sesame seeds

2T soy sauce

2t rice vinegar

2t honey

2t sesame oil

2 scallions, sliced thinly on the diagonal

100g soba noodles (cooked and blanched according to package instructions)

Methodology:

Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan over high heat, tossing frequently, until they turn golden brown, and start making popping sounds.

Mix the vinegar, soy sauce, honey and sesame oil, until the honey is dissolved.  Add the scallions, sesame seeds, and the cool, drained noodles.  Mix thoroughly, and let stand for half an hour, to allow the noodles to absorb some of the dressing.
