Ingredients

Scale

Beef and Marinade

  • 300g thinly sliced beef, tender cut
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce (natural)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar (natural)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (natural)
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced (natural)
  • 1 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Noodles and Sauce

  • 200g fresh rice noodles or egg-free noodles
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil (natural)
  • 1/2 tsp natural gelling agent

Garnish

  • 2 green onions, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beef and Marinade: Slice the beef thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness. In a bowl, mix soy sauce (natural), brown sugar (natural), minced garlic, minced ginger, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, and apple cider vinegar to create a flavorful marinade. Add the beef to the marinade, toss well, and let it soak up the flavors for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Cook the Noodles: Cook the noodles according to package instructions until just tender. Rinse them with cold water to stop the cooking process and set aside. Keeping noodles slightly firm helps maintain texture when combined with the sauce.
  3. Sear the Beef: Heat sesame oil (natural) in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef in batches to avoid overcrowding and cook quickly until browned while still juicy. This step locks in flavor and creates a caramelized exterior.
  4. Make the Sticky Sauce: Pour the reserved marinade into the pan with the beef. Add the natural gelling agent and stir continuously until the sauce thickens, coats the beef evenly with a glossy and sticky texture.
  5. Combine and Serve: Add the cooked noodles to the pan and toss thoroughly so every strand is coated with the sticky sauce. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot.

Notes

  • Slice beef thinly for quick cooking and tender bites.
  • Marinate the beef for at least 15 minutes to enhance flavor without making it soggy.
  • Cook beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan for proper searing.
  • Keep noodles slightly undercooked to hold texture after mixing with sauce.
  • Add natural gelling agent gradually to avoid over-thickening the sauce.
