A popular Cantonese dish, Stir-Fried Beef with Ho Fun Noodles, features tender slices of beef stir-fried with flat rice noodles (Ho Fun), garlic, and spring onions. The dish is known for its fragrant and savoury sauce that coats the noodles perfectly, creating a delightful balance of flavours. I always thought it was hard to make this dish at home, but with a proper wok, you can reach the same wok hei standard of this meal at home—just like in your favourite Cantonese restaurant.
Ingredients:
- 300g flat rice noodles (Ho Fun)
- 200g beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 spring onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
-
1/4 cup water
Instructions
- Prepare the noodles: Soak the flat rice noodles in warm water for about 20 minutes until they are softened. Drain and set aside.
- Prepare the beef: In a small bowl, mix the sliced beef with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1/4 teaspoon of white pepper. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.
- Stir-fry the garlic and spring onions:
- Add the beef:
- Add the noodles:
-
Serve: Serve the Stir-Fried Beef with Ho Fun Noodles immediately, garnished with extra chopped spring onions and a drizzle of sesame oil if desired.
Tips:
- Ensure the noodles are well-drained after soaking to prevent them from becoming too watery when stir-frying.
- Use high heat when stir-frying to maintain the texture and prevent the beef from becoming tough.
- Adjust the soy sauce and oyster sauce amounts to suit your taste preference—more for a stronger flavour, less for a milder one.
