This recipe was inspired by a Uyghur spot called Al-Barakah 🍜 near Al Baik in the Clock Tower. We loved it so much, we went back before we left to come back to the UK. I knew I had to recreate it at home. It’s a proper staple now. So flavourful, so comforting. ⠀ 🥢 Uyghur-Style Beef Chow Mein (serves 4) ⠀ 🧂 Ingredients Noodles 🍜 400g thick noodles (udon-style or fresh) ⠀ Beef + Marinade 🥩 350g thinly sliced steak 🧂 1.5 tbsp light soy sauce 🌽 1.5 tsp cornflour 🛢 1 tsp oil ⚫️ ½ tsp black pepper ⠀ Veg & Aromatics 🧅 1 brown onion 🫑 1 red pepper 🫑 1 green pepper 🍅 1 tomato or 1.5 tbsp tomato paste 🌶 1 small green chilli 🧄 4 garlic cloves 🫚 1 tbsp ginger 🛢 3 tbsp oil ⠀ Sauce 🌑 2.5 tbsp dark soy sauce 🌕 1.5 tbsp light soy sauce 🍶 1.5 tbsp Chinese vinegar 🔥 1 tbsp Sunwah Foods garlic chilli oil 🧂 ½ tsp sugar 💧 4 tbsp water ⠀ To Finish 🔥 Extra chilli oil (optional) 🌱 Toasted sesame seeds 🌿 Spring onions ⠀ 🍳 Quick Method ⏳ Marinate beef and set aside 🥣 Mix sauce and prep veg 🔥 Sear beef, remove 🧄 Stir-fry garlic, ginger, chilli → add onion + peppers 🍅 Add tomato, beef, then sauce 🍜 Toss in noodles and stir-fry until glossy 🌱 Top with sesame seeds + spring onions ⠀ 📌 Save this to try later! #halalrecipe #foodtiktok #DinnerIdeas #beefnoodles #noodle - @halalmunchgang
