Ingredients
Name | amount |
Beef | 70-80 g |

Onion | 30 g |
Carrot | 30 g |
Sweet pepper | 30 g |
Cabbage | 30 g |
Soy sauce | 3-4 tbsp. l |

Water | 1-1.5 l |

Step cooking
- Put a pot on the fire with 1-1.5 liters of water (based on at least 1 liter of water per 100 g of udon), add 1-1.5 tsp. salt. After boiling, reduce heat to medium.
- Dip 100 g of udon noodles into boiling water (1 bunch of a pack of 300 g) and cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes.
- Throw the noodles into a colander and rinse under a stream of cold water, drain. Put the udon back into the pan, add 1 tbsp. l vegetable oil and mix - so the noodles will not stick together.
- Rinse the meat (70-80 g per serving), strip off the films and grease and cut into cubes 5-6 mm thick.
- Peel and rinse the vegetables. About 30 g of onion, carrots, bell pepper and Beijing cabbage will be needed per serving. Onions cut into thin half rings.
- Carrots are either grated for Korean salads, or finely chopped into strips.
- Bell pepper also cut into strips.
- Cut the upper part of the leaves of Beijing cabbage (without lower hard veins) into narrow ribbons, then cut them into 2-3 parts (depending on the size of the cabbage fork).
- At maximum heat in a pan, heat 1-2 tbsp. l vegetable oil. Put the meat out and fry for 2-3 minutes, constantly turning the pieces over.
- Add 2-3 tbsp. l soy sauce and simmer all together for another 1-2 minutes, so that the sauce soaks the meat.
- Put chopped vegetables in a skillet and mix. Fry for 2-3 minutes.
- Add boiled udon to meat and vegetables, pour 2 tbsp. l soy sauce and 1-2 tsp. hot sriracha sauce.
- Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Sprinkle the finished dish with sesame seeds (it is better to dry it slightly in a dry pan). You can serve in boxes for dishes of Japanese and Chinese cuisine, or you can simply put it on a plate. Enjoy your meal!
