Servings: 2
You will need
  • 120 g rice vermicelli noodles
  • 150 g beef (tenderloin)
  • 100 g bean sprouts
  • 150 g bok choy (or greens of your choice)
  • 10 g basil
  • 10 g coriander (chopped)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 chili (sliced, optional, if you can't eat spicy food)
  • 2 tsp sesame seeds
  • 1/2 tbsp lime/lemon juice
    • The Sauce
  • 5 garlic cloves
  • 4 shallots
  • 1 chili
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp dark soy sauce (use soy sauce if you don't have it)
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes
  • 1/4 - 1/2 tsp salt (adjust to your taste)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • Slurry (by combining 1/2 tsp cornstarch with 1 tbsp water)
Instructions
  1. 1

    Bring a pot of water to a boil over medium high heat. Blanch bok choy first for 2-3 mins and transfer to a bowl. Next, add bean sprouts for 30-45 seconds and transfer to a separate bowl. 

  2. 2

    Add noodles and cook by following the packet's direction then transfer to a mixing bowl, add sesame oil and mix a little bit to avoid sticking. Set aside. 

  3. 3

    Last, cook beef for less than a minute in boiling water (you can add a few slices of ginger too). Transfer the beef to a separate bowl. 

  4. 4

    Heat a small sauce pan over medium heat, add 2 tbsp cooking oil. Once the oil is hot enough, add minced garlic, shallots and chili. Stir for about 2 minutes or until it's fragrant. Add the remaining ingredients except slurry and bring it to a boil. Once the sauce is boiled, stir in the slurry and mix until the sauce is thickened. Remove from heat and let it cool down completely. 

  5. 5

    Back with the mixing bowl we already had noodles and sesame oil. Now add bok choy, bean sprouts, beef, coriander, basil, chili slices ( if desired) and pour the sauce over. Toss well. 

  6. 6

    Add in lime juice and sesame seeds to serve! It's DELICIOUS 🤤
