Beef Chow Fun (Gan Chao Niu He)

Serves 4

Ingredients

Method

½ lb. Beef Flank Steak, Thinly Sliced

1 tbsp. Soy Sauce

1 tbsp. Oyster Sauce

1 tbsp. Dark Soy Sauce

1 tbsp. Chinese Rice Wine Or Dry Sherry

1 tsp. Cornstarch

1 tbsp. Vegetable Oil

2 Garlic, Minced

1 tsp. Grated Ginger

½ lb. Fresh Wide Rice Noodles

2 cups Bean Sprouts

4 Green Onions, Cut Into 1-inch Pieces

¼ tsp. Pinch Ground White Pepper

In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef, soy sauce, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, Chinese rice wine or dry sherry, and cornstarch. Mix well and let the beef marinate for 15-20 minutes.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.

Add the marinated beef to the skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the cooked beef from the skillet and set it aside.

In the same skillet, add the fresh wide rice noodles and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the noodles are heated through and slightly softened. Use a spatula to separate the noodles as they cook.

Return the cooked beef to the skillet, along with the bean sprouts and green onion pieces. Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the bean sprouts are crisp-tender and the green onions are slightly wilted.

Season the Beef Chow Fun with ground white pepper and serve immediately.
