Recipe 🍳
- Heat oil in a hot pan, add beef short rib meat and sear over high heat until one side is nicely browned with Maillard reaction, then set aside.
- Peel the outer layers of lemongrass and finely chop only the tender inner part; also finely chop garlic, ginger, and the white parts of scallions to prepare the aromatics.
- In the pan with the meat fat remaining, add all the prepared aromatics and stir-fry over low heat until fragrant, being careful not to burn.
- Once fragrant, add the soaked rice noodles and the sauce ingredients (oyster sauce, sriracha, soy sauce, sugar, gochugaru, a little water) and stir-fry quickly over high heat to cook the noodles.
- When the noodles are cooked, add the seared galbi-sal, lime leaves, water dropwort, and the green parts of scallions, toss lightly once more, then squeeze lime juice and mix in crushed sesame seeds to finish.
- Sear beef short rib meat over high heat until golden, then set aside.
- Finely chop lemongrass, garlic, ginger, and white parts of scallions and stir-fry in the pan to release fragrance.
- Add soaked rice noodles and sauce ingredients, stir-fry, then add the seared meat, water dropwort, and lime leaves.
- Finally, add lime juice and crushed sesame seeds, toss gently, and serve.
Cooking tips 💡
- Rice noodles should not be boiled; soak in cold water for at least 1 hour before using to absorb sauce well and remain chewy without swelling.
- Lemongrass and lime leaves can be easily purchased as a bundled pack at large Asian grocery stores or online malls.
