Method
Beef & Marinade
- 1
Slice and marinate
Trim any excess fat from the flank steak and slice very thinly across the grain (1/8–1/4 inch). In a bowl combine 2 tbs light soy sauce, 1 tbs Shaoxing wine, 1 tbs cornstarch, 1/2 tsp sesame oil and 1/4 tsp white pepper. Add the sliced beef, toss to coat, and let marinate at room temperature for 15–20 minutes (or refrigerate up to 1 hour).
Noodles & Sauce
- 2
Prepare noodles
If using refrigerated fresh hor fun, separate the sheets gently by hand or briefly run under warm water to loosen; do not break them. If using dry rice noodles, cook according to package until just tender, rinse under cold water, toss with a small drizzle of oil and set aside.

Make sauce
In a small bowl whisk together 1 tbs dark soy sauce, 1 tbs light soy sauce, 1 tbs oyster sauce, 1/2 tsp sugar and 2 tbs beef or chicken stock. In a separate tiny bowl dissolve 1/2 tsp cornstarch into a little water (about 1 tbs) to make a slurry and set aside.
Vegetables & Aromatics
- 4
Prep aromatics
Mince the garlic, julienne the ginger (if using), thinly slice the half onion, rinse and drain the bean sprouts, and cut scallions into 2-inch lengths.
Stir-fry & Assemble

Add noodles
Push the aromatics and onion to the side, add the remaining 1 tbs oil if needed and gently add the rice noodles. Let the noodles sit undisturbed for 10–20 seconds to get slight charring, then toss carefully to warm through and separate any large clumps. Try not to break the sheets.

Combine and sauce
Add the cooked beef back into the wok with the noodles, then pour the prepared sauce over everything. Stir gently to coat the noodles and beef. Give the cornstarch slurry a quick stir (it may have settled) and add it to the wok. Stir constantly for 20–30 seconds until sauce thickens slightly and coats the noodles.

Finish with vegetables
Add the bean sprouts and scallions, toss 10–15 seconds until the sprouts are slightly wilted but still crisp and scallions are bright. Remove from heat.

Season and serve
Finish with 1/2 tsp light sesame oil and a pinch of white pepper to taste. If desired, add sliced chili or a drizzle of chili oil. Plate immediately so noodles remain tender and slightly charred.
