Mongolian Beef Noodle Bowl Recipe

DIRECTIONS

1. Pre-soak rice noodles according to package directions then drain and set aside.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together tamari or soy sauce, brown sugar, water and red chili pepper flakes then set aside.

3. Heat 1/2 Tablespoon oil in a wok or large nonstick skillet over heat that's just a touch below high. Make sure oil is very hot.

4. Add 1/3 of the beef in an even layer in the bottom of the wok to SEAR IT. (If oil is not hot enough or you overcrowd the wok, the beef will steam vs sear.)

5. Season lightly with salt and pepper then allow beef to form a crust on the bottom before flipping and stir frying until just barely cooked through.

6. Remove beef to a plate then repeat with remaining beef, using 1/2 Tablespoon oil to stir fry each batch, and then set the plate aside.

7. Heat the remaining 1/2 Tablespoon oil in the wok then add green onions and coleslaw mix, season lightly with salt and then stir fry until coleslaw begins to wilt, 1-2 minutes. Add ginger and garlic then stir fry for another 30 seconds.

8. Add drained noodles and sauce to wok then stir fry until noodles are tender, 3-4 minutes.

9. Remove wok from heat then add beef and toss until warmed through

10. Serve....and enjoy!
