It was nice.. but i bought the wrong kind of noodles, instead it was the 'udon' like Vietnamese noodles. Ergh.. i hated that. I wanted to 'chu mee fen' but its so hard to find.
1.Chopped garlic+Onions = Stir fry till golden.
2.Add water.
3.When boiling, add beef cubes, 1 star anise, 6 cloves, 1 cinnamon stick.
4.Slow cook, add cornflour ( However much you think u need, by right the gravy takes about 3 hours to slow cook but to speed up process i added more cornflour)
5.Cracked pepper
6. Salt ( if you like, i hate using salt)
7. Dark soya sauce ( for colour and taste) + 2-3 tea spoons of light soya.
Stir, and slow cook it, min 45 mins- 1 hour, check occasionally, add more cornflour if needed.
Until thick and gravy like, drain it so that we only want the gravy not the stuff too.
Beef: Best to marinate with pepper and sesame oil over night.
Boil beef, till just nice, don't over cook. Drain and set aside
Beansprouts: Boil till nice, don't over cook again. You wan that crispiness. ( i missed out on beansprouts coz within 3 days, ill have to throw all of em away if i din finish)
Prepare 'ready-made' noodles. yellow mee or white mee.( from supermarket)
Boil, drain.
Add noodles into bowl, add the beef, beansprouts. Pour gravy over and Walah!
Add chilli and lime to taste.
Yum?
Yea hence i ditched the noodles, ate the beef and the radish only
Went on to microwave tv dinner..
SAD!. i took at least 45 mins to make the gravy
