Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb beef (sliced thin, such as flank steak or sirloin) Ensure it's halal.
  • 8 oz egg noodles Cook according to package instructions.
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce Ensure it's halal.
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 medium onion (sliced)
  • 1 medium bell pepper (sliced; any color)
  • 2 cups beef broth Halal-compliant.
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
Optional Toppings
  • sliced green onions For garnish.
  • sesame seeds For garnish.
  • chili flakes For added spice.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced beef and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until browned.
  3. Add the minced garlic, sliced onion, and bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and the bell pepper has softened.
  4. Pour in the soy sauce and beef broth. Stir well and let it simmer on medium heat for about 5 minutes.
  5. Gently fold in the cooked egg noodles, mixing everything together until the noodles are coated in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
  6. Sprinkle with your desired toppings—green onions, sesame seeds, or chili flakes—before serving.

Notes

For a lighter option, use lean turkey or chicken. Ensure to watch the cooking time to keep the beef tender. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
