π₯ Ingredients for Beef Glass Noodles
- Glass Noodles: You can easily find glass noodles in most Asian stores. To achieve the desired texture, simply soak them in cold water for about 30 minutes. These noodles donβt require an extended cooking time. When theyβre ready, the noodles will turn completely transparent or can be tasted for doneness.
- Ground Beef: You have the option to substitute the beef mince with pork or chicken mince. Just ensure they are fully thawed before cooking.
- Capsicum: Capsicum is an excellent addition to this stir-fry dish, not only for its vibrant colors and nutritional value but also because it doesnβt release excessive water while cooking. If youβre considering other vegetables, opt for those that arenβt leafy or prone to wateriness. Onions and celery are also viable and tasty alternatives.
π₯’ Recipe Tips
- Glass noodles work the best in this recipe but you can use other types of noodles.
- Avoid using warm or hot water to soak the glass noodles, as it could lead to overcooking.
- After the noodles have softened in the cold water, you can use scissors to cut them into lengths of about 10-15 cm. This makes them more convenient to cook and eat.
