This quick and easy Beef Noodle Stir-Fry is packed with veggies, mushrooms, and umami flavors thanks to the combination of oyster and soy sauces, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Chinese egg noodles deliver an authentic taste and satisfying chew, but in a pinch, any Asian noodles will do the job.

Cook the noodles in salted boiling water according to the package instructions. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large wok until sizzling hot. Add the bite-sized pieces of beef and cook until browned on all sides. Add the sliced vegetables and mushrooms and cook until tender. Stir in the cooked noodles and sauce ingredients and cook for a few minutes more. Serve immediately, garnished with toasted sesame seeds. It’s faster and better than takeout, I promise. Enjoy!
To make the Beef Noodle Stir-Fry, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large pot of salted boiling water, add 8 ounces dried wide egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions, about 6 minutes. Then drain and set aside.
In a large wok or pan over high heat, heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil until sizzling hot, about 1 minute. Add 8 ounces bite-sized beef pieces and cook until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. If using leftover roast beef, cook it until starting to warm, about 1-2 minutes instead.
Stir in 1 sliced onion, 1 sliced carrot, 1 cup sliced brown mushrooms, 1 cup sliced Chinese cabbage, and 1 cup spinach. Cook until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the cooked noodles and add 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce or hoisin sauce, 1 teaspoon rice vinegar or mirin, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, ½ teaspoon ground cumin, ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper or white pepper. Toss well and cook, stirring, for another 2-3 minutes until evenly coated.
Serve immediately, garnished with toasted sesame seeds.
