Tips
Choose the right cut of beef (flank or skirt steak) and slice against the grain.
Marinate the beef with soy sauce, cornstarch, water, and sugar.
Use fresh sa-ho fun noodles if possible, or dried ones (reducing the quantity).
Use two types of soy sauce: light and dark.
Stir-fry in sequence to maintain texture.
Use a well-seasoned wok or a non-stick wok.
If using dried noodles, reduce the quantity to 8oz/230g
