In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the rice noodles according to package instructions (usually about 5-7 minutes). Drain, rinse under cold water, and set aside.
In the same pot, blanch the broccoli florets and green beans for 3-4 minutes until vibrant and tender-crisp. Drain and toss them with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
In a frying pan over medium heat, heat 2 tbsp of olive oil. Season the cod fillets with ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Add the fillets to the pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are opaque and flake easily with a fork.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the orange juice, zest, and a pinch of salt. Drizzle this over the cooked cod just before serving.
On each plate, layer the rice noodles, green beans, and broccoli. Top the noodles with the cod fillets and drizzle with tahini. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh mint and optional sliced chili or crushed peanuts for an extra crunch.
