Beef Chow Fun

Beef Chow Fun features wide rice noodles stir-fried with thinly sliced flank steak, garlic, ginger, and mung bean sprouts. The beef is marinated briefly with cornstarch and soy sauce, then seared quickly to maintain tenderness. The sauce is balanced with Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, sesame oil, and a touch of sugar. Tossing all together at medium heat preserves the noodles' texture and integrates flavors, while green onions add a fresh finish.

Description

Beef Chow Fun highlights tender slices of flank steak cooked with wide rice noodles soaked to the right softness. The beef is first marinated to enhance its flavor and texture before being seared individually for a quick, even cook. Aromatics like garlic and ginger cook briefly to release their fragrance without burning. The addition of Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, and sesame oil creates a savory sauce that complements the mild earthiness of the noodles. Mung bean sprouts add a subtle crunch, and green onions provide a bright contrast when sprinkled on top. This stir-fry is cooked over high heat initially, then reduced to maintain balance and prevent overcooking the noodles and vegetables. This dish works well as a filling lunch or dinner and can be garnished with extra green onions if desired.
