Step 3: Cook the Ground Beef
Heat a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Step 4: Add Aromatics
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the cooked beef. Stir and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. This step builds the base flavor of your dish.
Step 5: Add the Sauce
Pour the prepared sauce into the pan with the beef. Stir well to combine. Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes so the flavors can meld together.
Step 6: Thicken the Sauce
Give your cornstarch slurry a quick stir, then add it to the pan. Mix continuously as the sauce thickens and becomes glossy. This should take about 1–2 minutes.
Step 7: Combine with Noodles
Add the cooked noodles to the pan. Toss everything together until the noodles are fully coated in the sauce and evenly mixed with the beef.
Step 8: Finish and Garnish
Turn off the heat and sprinkle chopped green onions over the top. If you like a bit of spice, add red chili flakes or a drizzle of chili oil.
