Beef Stir fry with Noodles

Last night I recieved a cooking lesson from Luke. I was craving an asian noodle dish, so lo and behold that is what we created. I have found that it's much easier to cook when you have all of the ingredients in the house (living close to Chinatown also helps).

We started with the chopping of the veggies and the beef. While we did this we put some water on to boil Then we marinated the beef in some yummy asian sauces like soy, rice wine, sesame oil and oyster sauce. We got the frying pan really hot and then cooked the beef. Then we took the beef out of the pan.

Next we threw the veggies into the fry pan (note, we do not have a wok which is unfortunate). We added some soy and oyster sauce to the veggies and stir fried them til they were nice and tender.

Ok, so then we put the egg noodles into the boiling water for about three minutes, just until they fell apart from the balls they came in. Once this happened we drained them and put them under cold water immediately.

The final step was lightly frying up the noodles and adding the beef and veggies. The outcome was super tasty and quite light. Definitely not as salty as takeout chinese.
