Ingredients
  

For the Beef
  • 500 g Thinly Sliced Beef Use sirloin or flank steak for tenderness; slice against the grain for the best texture.
For the Broth
  • 4 cups Chicken Stock/Bone Broth A rich liquid base; homemade broth offers deeper flavors.
  • 2 tbsp Peanut Butter Adds creaminess and the signature satay flavor; try tahini for a twist.

  • 1 tbsp Ground Coriander Complements cumin and enriches the blend of spices.
  • Salt & Pepper Essential for seasoning and balancing flavors.
  • Lime Juice Fresh lime juice adds much-needed acidity to balance the rich broth.
For the Noodles
  • 200 g Rice Noodles The heart of the dish; these medium-width noodles absorb the soup's flavor beautifully.
For the Garnish
  • 1 cup Bean Sprouts Adds a fresh crunch to each bite.
  • 1 cup Fresh Cilantro Leaves Enhances flavor and gives a pop of color.
  • 1 Diced Red Chili Optional for a spicy kick—adjust to your heat preference!

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Marinate the Beef: In a mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced beef with soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, along with salt and pepper. Mix well to ensure every piece is coated. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Broth: In a large pot, pour in chicken stock over medium heat. Whisk in peanut butter until fully dissolved. Allow to simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Cook Noodles: Bring a separate pot of water to a boil and add rice noodles. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually 3 to 8 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
  4. Cook Beef: Heat a large skillet over high heat, add oil, and then the marinated beef in a single layer. Stir-fry for about 2 to 3 minutes until browned.
  5. Combine Ingredients: Transfer the cooked rice noodles into the simmering broth, followed by the seared beef. Stir well to combine and heat for another 2-3 minutes.
  6. Serve: Ladle the Satay Beef Noodle Soup into bowls, garnishing with bean sprouts, cilantro leaves, lime juice, and optional diced red chili. Serve immediately.
