Ingredients

  • 250 grams Flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 450 grams Fresh wide rice noodles (Ho Fun)
  • 1 cup Bean sprouts
  • 3 stalks Green onions, cut into 2-inch lengths
  • 1 tablespoon Dark soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Light soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Shaoxing wine(optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced

Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the beef with 1 teaspoon of light soy sauce, cornstarch, and a splash of oil for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    If using fresh noodles, gently separate them to ensure they don't stick together during frying.

  3. 3

    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok over high heat. Sear the beef until just browned but not fully cooked. Remove and set aside.

  4. 4

    Wipe the wok and heat the remaining oil until shimmering. Add ginger and the white parts of the green onions.

  5. 5

    Add the rice noodles to the wok. Spread them out and let them sear for 1-2 minutes without moving to get a slight char.

  6. 6

    Add the dark soy sauce, remaining light soy sauce, and Shaoxing wine. Toss gently to coat the noodles evenly without breaking them.

  7. 7

    Return the beef to the wok along with the bean sprouts and the rest of the green onions.

  8. 8

    Stir-fry on high heat for another 1-2 minutes until the sprouts are slightly wilted and everything is well combined.

  9. 9

    Serve immediately while hot.
