Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 200 grams whole wheat noodles
- 60 ml soy sauce, low sodium
- 30 ml oyster sauce
- 15 ml hoisin sauce
- 15 ml honey
- 10 grams cornstarch
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 10 grams ginger, minced
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 200 grams broccoli, cut into small florets
- 100 grams baby spinach
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced
- 15 ml toasted sesame oil
- 15 ml vegetable oil
- 10 grams sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, prepare the marinade and sauce by combining soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, and cornstarch. Mix until smooth.
2. Place the sliced beef in a large bowl, add half of the marinade, and let it sit for 15 minutes while you prep other ingredients. Reserve the remaining sauce for later.
3. Cook the whole wheat noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
4. Heat 7 ml of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned but not fully cooked. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
5. In the same skillet, add the remaining vegetable oil. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, then cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
6. Add the broccoli florets, carrot, and red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
7. Return the cooked beef to the skillet along with the baby spinach. Stir in the reserved sauce and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine and the spinach to wilt.
8. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, drizzle with toasted sesame oil, and toss everything together until evenly coated and heated through.
9. Serve the stir-fried noodles hot. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
