Really, what is she doing combining bulgogi beef and noodles? Well, effectively bulgogi is just a marinade and I love marinated beef. It then makes for a really yummy noodle dish when you pump it up with veggies and noodles. It's the perfect noodle dish for kids too, as the flavours aren't too overpowering or too spicy. This bulgogi style beef with noodles and veggies is the perfect summer meal.
Seriously, find me a kid that doesn't love noodles, and at least with these you know that you're getting veggies in with the noodles, which is definitely a plus!
The secret to these noodles is the super cheap sizzle steak that you use and the marinating that makes it soft and tender unlike the strips usually used in stirfries and noodle dishes. I really think those beef strips are not at all good for quick cooking. If you don't believe that sizzle steak can get you an awesome noodle stirfry, then I beg you...try it this once, then judge away!
Maybe you're looking at this dish and thinking "my kids won't eat those veggies"? Well if that's the case, sub them with ones they will eat, like baby corn, green beans, whatever tickles their fancy, as this really is a versatile dish.
You need at least an hour to marinate the sizzle steak, as the marinating means that the steak is tenderised and the sinew in the meat is broken down. With only 400 grams of sizzle steak used in the recipe, it's quite a cheap meal, and you can customise your veggies to be what's in season. Even the fussiest eater is catered for with this Bulgogi style beef with noodles and veggies. This one pan meal could become your new weekday go-to!
