A delightful stir-fry dish featuring tender beef slices and rice noodles, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Slice the beef thinly against the grain.
Slicing against the grain ensures the beef remains tender when cooked.
In a bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, cornstarch, and sesame oil to create the marinade.
Mixing the cornstarch well prevents lumps in the marinade.
Add the beef slices to the marinade and let it sit for 20 minutes.
Marinating enhances the flavor and tenderness of the beef.
Heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil in a wok over medium-high heat.
Ensure the wok is hot before adding ingredients to achieve a good sear.
Stir-fry the garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Keep stirring to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the marinated beef to the wok and stir-fry until it changes color, about 3 minutes.
Cook the beef in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the wok.
Push the beef to one side of the wok and add the rice noodles, bean sprouts, and chives.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the noodles.
Stir-fry everything together until well combined and heated through, about 2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed before serving.
Serve the stir-fry hot, garnished with additional chives if desired.
Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its best.
