I’m concerned that this confession will lose me my foodie credibility, but I don’t LOVE Italian pasta dishes. Don’t get me wrong – I enjoy them well enough. But you want to talk about pasta dishes that I LOVE? Oh that’s all asian pasta! This ground beef based Asian noodle dish is easy, delicious, and satisfies the most intense of asian noodle cravings!

Asian Sesame Beef Noodles

Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

2 lb ground beef
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Oil for frying

Vegetables:

2 Tablespoon oil
1 onion, sliced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 garlic cubes
3 ginger cubes
24 oz frozen broccoli florets, defrosted and chopped

Sauce:

1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup duck sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
2 Tablespoons honey
2 Tablespoons sesame oil

Assembly and Garnish:

1 lb noodles such as udon, cooked according to package directions
Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

Heat oil in a large, deep frying pan over high heat. Season beef generously with salt, then sear for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned. Reduce heat to low and chop the meat into small pieces; set aside.
Add oil to frying pan. Add onion and salt; cook on medium-high heat for five minutes, until softened.
Add garlic, ginger and broccoli. Continue to cook for about 10 minutes, until broccoli is cooked through.
Meanwhile, stir together all sauce ingredients. Pour sauce into pan. Add reserved meat and noodles. Cook, stirring often, until everything is evenly coated. If desired, garnish with sesame seeds prior to serving.

Notes

Plan ahead: this dish is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be prepared 1-2 days ahead of time and rewarded, loosely covered, until warmed through.
