Ginger Beef Noodles
These ginger beef noodles are a wildly delicious, really easy, crowd pleasing meal you are definitely going to want to add to your rotation. Slammed with flavour, great texture, this noodles will become something you crave on a regular basis!
What kind of beef should I use?
For this recipe I used a striplion steak. I chose this cut as it has a nice amount of fat, which as we know equals flavour! Always look for steaks that have white fat marbling and healthy bright red colouring. The exact cut doesn’t really matter for this dish, use whatever cut you can get your hands on.
Prior to cooking the beef I sliced it into bite sized chunks and tossed it in a ziplock bag with rice flour (any flour works), salt, and pepper. I do this as the flour with help crisp up the beef as well thicken up the sauce we add in.
Let’s break down the ingredients for Ginger Beef Noodles.
So we already talked beef, but keep in mind that this dish works with any protien. Chicken, shrimp, tofu are all amazing options for this dish. Make it your own!
I love this recipe as it is an amazing way to use up whatever vegetables you have in the fridge. I like using brightly coloured veggies as they are packed with nutrients, as well as visually appealing to the eye which is important! Carrots, bean sprouts, and red cabbage are my go to’s.
I definately don’t skimp on the aromatics for this dish. I am always heavy handed with the garlic, ginger, and green onions. These foundational flavours can make any dish you prepare taste incredible. Don’t be shy, and always try to use fresh garlic and ginger!
Noodles! I keep this easy and use 2 packages of instant ramen noodles.
Now on to the sauce! Nothing fancy here, all I did was pour in some hoisin, which has a lovely sweet and savoury flavour, soy sauce, sesame oil, and sriracha. The balance of sweet, salty, savoury, and spicy is very addicting! You have been warned 🙂
This is a great meal to make on a busy weeknight, or it is also a fun one to make when guests are coming by!
These ginger beef noodles are amazing as left overs as well. Simply reheat in the microwave or in a pan and enjoy the next day! Talk about a lunch you can be excited about!
