Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 250 g (8.8 ounces) ground beef
Noodles:
- 120 g (4.2 ounces) vermicelli
Seasoning and Sauces:
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons corn flour (cornstarch)
- 2 tablespoons white pepper powder
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 2 tablespoons spring onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 tablespoons Chinese dark vinegar (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Chinese chili oil (optional)
Instructions
- Heat oil in a saucepan over medium temperature and sauté ground beef, methodically breaking it into crumbly pieces while stirring intermittently until achieving a rich golden-brown exterior.
- Introduce freshly grated ginger and soy sauce to the beef, quickly stirring for a brief moment to amplify aromatic complexity. Pour water and sprinkle white pepper powder, then lower heat and allow mixture to gently simmer, monitoring liquid levels and replenishing if necessary.
- Simultaneously, prepare a separate pot with salted water, bringing to a rolling boil. Submerge vermicelli and cook until reaching perfect tender-firm consistency, then drain thoroughly and set aside.
- Create a smooth corn flour mixture by whisking with water until no lumps remain. Gradually incorporate this thickening agent into the simmering beef sauce, stirring consistently to ensure uniform consistency.
- Transfer drained vermicelli directly into the richly flavored beef sauce, carefully folding to ensure complete and even coating of noodles.
- Elevate the dish’s presentation by generously scattering freshly chopped spring onions across the surface. Optional: Enhance with a delicate drizzle of Chinese dark vinegar and chili oil for additional depth and complexity.
