How do you make these ground beef noodles?
The ground beef is pan-fried to bring out the flavor and then seasoned with soy sauce, grated ginger, and white pepper powder. Corn flour is to thicken the sauce. And add some drops of Chinese dark vinegar and chilli oil to your plate, it is a taste of heaven! 🙂

Recipe notes:
Add the soy sauce to the pan-fried beef and stir fry for 10 seconds to caramelize the soy sauce and bring out the toasty and sweet flavors.
I found the Vermicelli pasta has a similar texture to the Chinese hand-pulled noodles. But you can use any noodles for this recipe.

FAQs:
Q: What is white pepper powder?
A: White pepper is the extract of Piper nigrum, a berry in the peppercorn family that grows in India and Sri Lanka. The black peppercorns come from the same plant but are picked early before ripening, producing a slightly less aromatic and more delicate flavour. It is widely used in Chinese cuisine for a clean and light spiciness without being too overwhelming. Yes, you can replace the white pepper powder with black pepper powder in this recipe.
Not everyone can handle heat well. If you’re sensitive to spice, start by adjusting the white pepper powder to 1 or 1/2 teaspoon, or skip it if you have to.
Q: Is corn flour the same as corn starch?
A: Yes, in this recipe the corn flour is the corn starch. It is for thickening the sauce.
Q: What is Chinese black vinegar?
A: Chinese black vinegar is made from glutinous rice, sweet rice, and wheat. Several varieties of Chinese black vinegar are available on the market, which vary in color and flavor. We usually use the yellow label one called ZhenJiang vinegar.
Q: Where can I get the Chinese chili oil?
A: You can make chili oil at home. For ready-made ones, Laoganma Chilli Oil is widely available in Chinese grocery stores.
Q: Why add vinegar and chili oil after cooking?
A: This dish caters to the whole family, considering that children may not appreciate the strong flavors of vinegar and chili. The use of these ingredients also depends on personal preferences.
