« on: May 07, 2013, 08:31:13 PM »

Ingredients:
(4 Servings)

    1lb flank steak
    2 teaspoons minced fresh garlic
    1 ½ teaspoons minced fresh ginger
    ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (or more, to taste)
    2 tablespoons sesame oil
    2 tablespoons cornstarch
    ¾ cup beef broth
    ½ cup hoisin sauce
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    8 ounces vermicelli (cooked)
    ½ cup sliced green onions


 
 Method:

Step 1: Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add vermicelli and cook according to package directions. Drain and set aside. While the noodles are cooking, slice steak against the grain thinly into strips.  In a large wok or skillet heat sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add red pepper flakes, garlic and ginger and stir fry for 10 seconds. Add the sliced steak and stir fry for about 5 minutes.

Step 2: Combine cornstarch and beef broth and whisk until smooth. Stir the beef broth mixture, hoisin sauce, and soy sauce into the pan with the steak. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly for about 1 minute or until the mixture is thick and bubbly.

Step 3: Toss the steak and sauce mixture with the cooked hot noodles. Sprinkle with sliced green onions.
