Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef tenderloin
- 3 large zucchini
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 1 medium carrot
- 1 large onion
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1.5 liters beef broth
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon coriander
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- to taste salt
- to taste black pepper
- for garnish fresh cilantro
Instructions
Trim excess fat from the beef tenderloin and cut it into thin strips.
Spiralize the zucchinis to create noodle-like strands. Set aside.
Slice the bell peppers into strips, peel and julienne the carrot, and thinly slice the onion.
Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef strips and cook until they are browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the beef from the pot and set aside. In the same pot, add the onion, bell peppers, and carrot. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the tomato paste, soy sauce, cumin, and coriander. Cook for 2 minutes, mixing well to combine the flavors.
Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Return the beef strips to the pot, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste.
Add the spiralized zucchini noodles and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, until just tender.
Ladle the Lagman into bowls, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve hot.
