Sautéed Noodles with Beef and Vegetables in Asian Style

 This is an Asian Dish that I just make when I can't figure out what to eat! Very simple but tasty enough to crave it once in awhile! It's sautéed in a hot pan but less greasy than Chinese Lo Mein! You can also use chicken, pork or even Shrimp instead of Beef.


LEVEL: EASY
PORTION: 2-3 People
TIME: 30 mins

INGREDIENTS:   Tender Beef Steak (1/2 lbs), Onion (1/2), Carrot (1), Zucchini (1/2),
                              Spinach (handful), Linguine noodles (alittle more than 1/2 lbs),
                              Sesame seeds (1 Table Spoon) 
                           

For marinating meat:  Soy Sauce (2 Table Spoons), Sugar (1 Table Spoon), Ginger (1/2
                                 Table Spoon), Garlic ( 1/2 Table Spoon), Oyster Sauce (1 Table Spoon),
                                 White Wine (1 Table Spoon)
                               
                                 

Rest of the Seasoning: Soy Sauce (2 Table Spoons), Sugar (1 Table Spoon), Oyster
                                  Sauce (1 1/2 Table Spoon), Korean Pepper Powder "Gochutgaru" (1-2
                                  Table Spoon * Depending on  how spicy you want it)     
                                 
                               
                               
                             

1. Slice the Tender Beef Steak into little edible-size strips. Chop the Garlic and Ginger and place it in a bowl. Put all the rest of the seasoning in the bowl and mix it till everything dissolves. Place the sliced Steak and mix it all together and leave it for 15 mins.


2. Heat water in a pot and add some salt. When the water is to a full boil, put the Linguine noodles in the pot.
Cook the noodles a little al dente since you will re-cook the noodles with the Sautéed beef and veggies later.
Set the noodles in the colander and set it aside.

3. Chop the Onion, Carrot, Zucchini into thin slices.

4. Drizzle some Olive Oil on the hot pan Medium High Heat. Add the Onion and stir. The important thing about this dish is that you need to be aware of what vegetables cook faster. A min later, add the carrots.

5. Then add the marinated beef in the pan. Stir and mix everything together. Add the Zucchini and Spinach.

 6. Put the Rest of the Seasoning (Soy Sauce, Sugar, Oyster Sauce, Korean Pepper Powder) in the pan and stir. Place the noodles in the pan and keep stirring in the pan and mix it thoroughly.

7. Taste it and if it's bland, then add 1/2 Table Spoon each of Oyster Sauce and Soy Sauce.

8. Place the Sautéed Noodles on a plate and sprinkle some sesame seed on top! And Voilaaaaaa enjoy!
