Everyone in China is familiar with the California beef noodle restaurants located in various train stations, right? Sometimes when I have to eat a bowl while rushing or waiting for the bus, I find that it is really expensive and lacks meat.

Now the real-life California Beef Noodles is finally here! Don’t worry about the lack of meat. The broth full of essence is paired with the smooth and chewy beef noodles. No matter how much effort you put in, it’s worth it! Let’s learn how to make beef noodles together.

Materials:

Beef

Noodles

Eggs

Onion, ginger, garlic, coriander, aniseed

Dried chili peppers

Fructus fermented bean curd

Dark soy sauce

Noodle sauce

Method:

1. The beef I buy is the meat from the leg. Use the back of a knife to chop the meat a few times to break the tendons. Then cut into pieces.

You can put the meat in hot water. If you find it troublesome, you don’t have to use it. The purpose of passing water is to prevent the beef from having too much foam when cooking.

2. Then, put the meat in the pot and add water to cover the beef by about 3cm. It depends on everyone’s pot, just the right amount.

3. Add onions, ginger and aniseed as seasonings. If you like dried chili, add one. Note: If you add garlic, put it in with the skin on, a whole head or half a head. Depending on how much beef you stew.

4. Two and a half spoonfuls of noodle sauce and one spoonful of dark soy sauce. Just check if the color is dark enough. I also added half a piece of fermented bean curd. If you like it sweeter, you can add a little sugar.

I usually add salt at the end. Usually when I put the pasta sauce or something, the taste is almost the same. Girls, you can taste it before adding salt.

5. At this time, it can be stewed over high heat. Bring an ordinary pot to high heat and simmer for about 1 hour.

You can also put two eggs in it to marinate.

6. You can put potatoes or something into the stewed beef. I still like beef noodles. Next noodles, cut some coriander.
