• egg noodles - I prefer the texture on egg noodles for this stir fry, but really any kind of Asian noodles will work. Just pick your favorite.
• vegetable oil
• beef - I recommend using beef flank steak or top sirloin for this stir fry. You can also use leftover roast beef for a great way to use up holiday leftovers.
• vegetables - I used onion, carrot, brown mushrooms, Chinese cabbage, and spinach. You can feel free to substitute with any veggies that you have on hand.
• sauce - for the sauce, you will need soy sauce, oyster sauce or hoisin sauce, rice vinegar or mirin (optional), sesame oil, ground cumin, and ground black pepper or white pepper.

One of my favorite things about this stir fry is that it's customizable so you can use up any veggies that are in your fridge. Consider adding:

• brussels sprouts
• leafy greens like bok choy or kale

How to Make the Best Beef Noodle Stir Fry

1. Cook noodles. Bring a large cooking pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add egg noodles and a little bit of salt and cook according to package directions, about 6 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
2. Cook beef. Heat oil in a large wok or pan over high heat until sizzling hot, about 1 minute. Add beef and sauté until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. If using leftover roast beef, add it in and cook for 1-2 minutes instead, until starting to warm.
3. Add vegetables. Add onion, carrot, mushrooms, cabbage, and spinach. Stir well and cook until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add noodles. Stir in noodles and add all the sauce ingredients (soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, cumin, and pepper). Toss well and cook for another 2-3 minutes until evenly coated.
5. Serve. Garnish with white sesame seeds and serve immediately.

Storing Instructions

• How to store: Noodles are best served fresh. If you have leftovers, allow them to cool to room temperature first. Then, transfer the Asian beef noodle stir fry to an airtight container and store in the fridge for 3-4 days.
• How to reheat: Reheat these Chinese beef noodles the same way you cooked it — on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring frequently until warmed through. You can also pop it in the microwave on medium heat in 30-second intervals.
