Dry fried flat rice noodles with marinated flank steak and green onions! So flavorful and simple to prepare! This is a classic Cantonese style noodle dish that is popular and can be made in under 30 minutes!
Making this dish and eating it brought back all the nostalgic feelings growing up! I remember going to my favorite Chinese cafe with my mom all the time and I would ask to order this recipe. I would either get this beef one or the chicken chow fun!
As a kid, noodles and rice were two of my favorites! This one has always been a favorite. I love the chewiness of the the flat rice noodles and the light coating of sauce on the noodles!
