Method 6 steps

  1. Marinate the beef in 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp sesame oil and the garlic for 15 minutes.

  2. Cook the noodles in boiling water for 6 to 7 minutes until chewy and translucent. Drain, rinse, snip into shorter lengths and toss with 1 tbsp sesame oil.

  3. Cook the beaten eggs in a lightly oiled nonstick pan as a thin sheet over low heat, about 1 minute per side. Roll up and slice into thin ribbons.

  4. In a hot oiled skillet, stir-fry the carrot, snow peas, pepper and mushrooms separately for 1 to 2 minutes each so they stay crisp and bright. Wilt the spinach for 30 seconds.

  5. Stir-fry the beef over high heat for 2 to 3 minutes until browned.

  6. Combine the noodles, vegetables and beef in a large bowl with the remaining soy sauce, sugar and sesame oil. Toss by hand, then top with egg ribbons and sesame seeds.
