VERMICELLI RICE NOODLES ---------- - Cook via package instructions - I like using the Three Ladies brand - one bunch is enough for 2 people HERBS & VEGETABLES - PREP THE BOWL ---------- - I highly recommend using as many of these herbs as possible! They will definitely make the dish A LOT tastier! - Wash all herbs & vegetables - Cut cucumber & lettuce into small strips - Start preparing your bowl, the beef will cook super fast! - Prepare a bowl with some lettuce, rip some herbs, cucumbers, and a bed of rice noodles STIR FRY BEEF & PLATING ---------- - Heat up a wok or pan on HIGH HEAT - Add in 2 TBSP Oil - Saute minced garlic until fragrant but not browned - Add in beef and spread out into one layer - Do not overcrowd otherwise the beef will steam - Let it sit for 1 minute to develop some color - Once the beef is 80% cooked, throw in the bean sprouts - Toss for 30 seconds - 1 minute until the bean sprouts start to wilt - Plate beef directly on top of the noodles - Pour on ~3-4 TBSP of the fish sauce - Top off the bowl with 2 spoonfuls of crushed roasted peanuts, fried shallots, and pickled papaya. - Serve with a wedge of lime - ENJOY! -------------------------------------------------- Some links below are affiliate links, a small percentage of your purchase helps support this channel! 🥢 COOKING EQUIPMENT & INGREDIENTS - Three Ladies Rice Noodles - https://amzn.to/3kvz4py - Three Crabs Brand Fish Sauce - https://amzn.to/3kvz4py 📸.
