Beef Chow Fun
Description
To prepare Beef Chow Fun, dried wide rice noodles are soaked until soft, then mixed with thinly sliced flank steak that has been marinated briefly in dark soy sauce, sherry, and cornstarch. A sauce mixture made of beef broth, oyster sauce, and soy sauce provides depth and richness. Stir-frying the beef with onions and green onions develops savory flavors before adding noodles and sauce to coat everything evenly.
The dish features tender beef pieces alongside chewy rice noodles that soak up the savory, slightly sweet sauce. Cooking over medium-high heat helps create a slight sear on the beef and caramelize the onions, adding to the flavor complexity.
Best served hot, Beef Chow Fun offers a comforting noodle stir-fry that can be enjoyed as a standalone meal or accompanied by other Chinese dishes.
Ingredients
- 1/2 pound wide rice noodles dried
- 3 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons dry sherry or Chinese rice wine

- 1/2 cup green onion sliced
Instructions

- Combine beef broth, oyster sauce, and the remaining 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce in a bowl. Set the sauce aside.
- Heat wok or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, swirling around to coat the sides.

- Add the flank steak and the green onions; stir-fry until the beef is no longer pink, about 1 to 2 minutes.
