Step 1

STEP 1Combine the beef and the marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Set aside while you prepare the other ingredients (the marinade only needs about 10-15 minutes to work its magic).

Step 3

STEP 2Combine the ingredients for the stir-fry sauce in a bowl. Set aside for later.

Step 5

STEP 3If using store-bought rice noodles, prepare them by removing them from the wrapper and microwaving for about 30 seconds to soften. Then use your hands to gently separate the noodles so they don’t clump together.

Step 7

STEP 4Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan. Add the onion and stir-fry for a couple of seconds. Then add the beef and spread the pieces out in the pan. Leave them to brown on the first side for half a minute or so. Then toss and stir-fry and repeat until the beef is starting to char and is almost cooked. Then toss through the bean shoots. Then add the noodles and the stir-fry sauce. Stir-fry for about a minute or until the sauce has thickened and the noodles are glossy. Toss through the spring onion and serve.
