Instructions

Prepare the marinade

In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, and grated ginger. Add the sliced beef and toss to coat. Let marinate for 15 minutes.

Pro tip: Marinating the beef enhances its flavour and tenderness.

Cook the noodles

Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Pro tip: Rinse the noodles under cold water to stop the cooking process.

Shred the cabbage

Using a sharp knife or mandoline, shred the cabbage finely. Set aside.

Pro tip: Uniformly shredded cabbage ensures even cooking.

Stir-fry the beef

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove from the skillet.

Pro tip: Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure even browning.

Cook the cabbage

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the shredded cabbage and curry powder. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until the cabbage is tender.

Pro tip: Adjust the curry powder to your spice preference.

Combine and serve

Return the beef to the skillet, add the cooked noodles, and toss everything together. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot.

Pro tip: Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture.
