Korean Jab Chae Noodles
Ingredients
  • 3 cups water
  • 1/2 pound sweet potato vermicelli noodles
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, divided, or as needed
  • 3 1/2 ounces beef tenderloin, cut into strips
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 carrot, cut into matchstick-size pieces
  • 2 spring onions, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
1
Begin by filling a large pot with water and placing it on the stovetop over high heat, bringing the liquid to a rolling boil.
2
Next, add the vermicelli noodles to the boiling water and continue cooking until they become translucent and tender, typically requiring 10-12 minutes.
3
Subsequently, transfer the cooked noodles to a colander and allow them to rest for 10 minutes before rinsing with cold water.
4
Subsequently, cut the noodles into smaller pieces using a sharp knife or kitchen tool, approximately 2-3 times.
5
In a separate pan, heat 1 teaspoon of oil over medium-high heat and sauté the beef until it reaches a fully cooked state, usually taking 3-4 minutes.
6
Transfer the beef to a large serving dish or bowl.
7
In the same pan, heat another 1 teaspoon of oil over medium-high heat and sauté the onion until it becomes slightly tender, typically taking 2-3 minutes.
8
Add salt and pepper to taste as you sauté the onion, then transfer it to the bowl with the beef.
9
In the same pan once more, heat 1 teaspoon of oil over medium-high heat and sauté the carrot until it becomes slightly tender, usually taking 2-3 minutes.
10
Add salt and pepper to taste as you sauté the carrot, then combine it with the beef mixture.
11
In the same pan one last time, heat 1 teaspoon of oil over medium-high heat and sauté the spring onions until they become slightly tender, approximately 1 minute.
12
Add salt and pepper to taste as you sauté the spring onions, then combine them with the beef mixture.
13
Combine the cooked noodles with the beef mixture in a large bowl or serving dish.
14
In a separate bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sugar, sesame seeds, and sesame oil until well combined.
15
Pour the sauce over the noodle mixture and gently stir everything together to create a harmonious blend.
