Ingredients

  • 8 oz beef sirloin, thinly sliced

  • 10 oz udon noodles, cooked and drained

  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

  • 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced

  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced

  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce

  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Black pepper to taste


Instructions

  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat.

  • Add the sliced beef and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.

  • In the same pan, add the garlic, onion, and bell peppers. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until just tender.

  • Add the cooked udon noodles and beef back into the pan.

  • Pour in soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil. Toss everything well to coat.

  • Cook for another 2–3 minutes until heated through.

  • Season with black pepper and serve hot.


Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the beef with a little soy sauce and cornstarch for 15 minutes before stir-frying.

  • Feel free to add mushrooms, snap peas, or baby corn for more vegetable variety.

  • Udon noodles can be substituted with rice noodles or lo mein if needed.

  • Serve with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds or chopped green onions for garnish.
