Step 1

Wash the bean sprouts and set aside

Step 2

Cut 1/3 of a white onion into slices and set aside

Step 3

Wash the green onions and cut off the root ends. Cut the green onions into 2-inch segments. For the thicker parts of the green onions (the white parts) cut those in half lengthwise as well so they are easier to cook and not chunky. Set aside

Step 4

Slice the beef against the grain, and place it in a bowl with the marinating sauce. Mix well and set aside to marinate for 15 minutes.

Step 5

Place the fresh noodles on a plate and microwave it for 1-2 minutes in 30-40 second intervals. At the 1 minute mark, try to loosen up the noodles with your hands. The noodles on the outer edge of the plate usually will soften up first. Loosen the soft ones first, and then put them in the middle of the plate so the non-softened ones can be on the outer edge of the plate to have a chance to get soft.

Step 6

Once the noodles are a little soft and separated, set them aside to cool completely before stir-frying.

Step 7

(If You Are Using Dried Rice Noodles) Soak the dried wide rice noodles in hot water for 6-8 minutes until they are pliable and can be easily bent, then drain the water and set it aside.

Step 8

In a small bowl, combine all the sauce ingredients and set aside.(If You Are Using Dried Rice Noodles) - Add 1/4 cup of water to the sauce mix.

Step 9

Set the stove to high heat and add a bit of oil to a non-stick frying pan or well-seasoned wok.

Step 10

Once the pan is hot, add in the marinated beef and cook it for about 1-2 minute (No more than 2 minutes, you want the beef to be medium rare). Remove the beef from the pan and set aside for later

Step 11

Clean out the frying pan/wok and add in a bit of oil. Once the oil is hot add in the white onion and cook for about 1 minute.

Step 12

Then add in the noodles and the sauce mix at the same time and stir the noodles with the sauce. Use the sauce to soften up the noodles more, and keep moving the noodles around so that it doesn't stick to the pan. Cook it for about 1-2 minutes or until it looks soft.

Step 13

Throw in the bean sprouts and green onions and the cooked beef and quickly toss it into the noodles and turn off the heat.

Step 14

Continue to toss everything together and let the bean sprouts and green onions cook with the residual heat from the pan

Step 15

Remove from pan and enjoy! :)
