Ingredients
Scale
Meat and Protein
- 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced
Noodles
- 8 oz noodles (rice noodles or egg noodles)
Sauces and Oils
- 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
Vegetables and Aromatics
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 green onions, chopped
Optional Garnish
- Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the noodles: Prepare the noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain them thoroughly and set aside to prevent sticking.
- Heat the oil: Warm the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat to prepare for stir-frying the beef and vegetables.
- Cook the beef: Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin to the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
- Sauté the vegetables: Add the minced garlic, thinly sliced red bell pepper, and julienned carrot to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet retain some crunch.
- Add sauces and combine: Stir in the hoisin sauce and soy sauce, followed by the cooked noodles. Toss everything together in the skillet until the noodles, beef, and vegetables are evenly coated with the sauce and heated through.
- Garnish and serve: Remove from heat. Garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds if desired. Serve the Hoisin Beef Noodles warm for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use rice noodles for a gluten-free option or egg noodles for a richer taste.
- For extra heat, add a pinch of red chili flakes during cooking.
- To save time, slice the beef ahead of time or buy pre-sliced sirloin.
- If you prefer a vegetarian version, substitute beef with tofu or tempeh and use vegetarian hoisin and soy sauces.
- Sesame seeds add a nice nutty crunch but are optional.
