Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon oil
- 250 g ground beef
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 2 teaspoon White pepper powder more or less, adjust to your liking
- 2 tablespoon corn flour also called Corn starch
- 2 tablespoon spring onion chopped
- 120 g vermicelli more or less for two
- 2 tablespoon Chinese dark vinegar optional
- 2 tablespoon Chinese chilli oil optional
Instructions
- In a sauce pan heat the oil and ground beef over medium heat. Break the meat apart. Cook until slightly browned.
- Add in the grated ginger and soy sauce, and stir fry for 10-15 seconds. Add 1 cup of water and white pepper powder. Put a lid on and simmer for 10 minutes. Add more water if it evaporates too much. (time to cook the noodles)
- Boil the noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water according to packet instructions until al dente. Remove; strain and set aside.
- Mix the corn flour with 1/2 cup of water and pour into the beef sauce. Stir until evenly thickening.
- Toss in the cooked noodles and then serve with spring onions on the top. Add the Chinese dark vinegar and chilli oil if desired.
Notes
- Add the soy sauce to the pan-fried beef and stir fry for 10 seconds to caramelize the soy sauce and bring out the toasty and sweet flavors.
- I found the Vermicelli pasta has a similar texture to the Chinese hand-pulled noodles. But you can use any noodles for this recipe.
