One-pan Beef Ramen Noodles is an easy, flavoursome stir-fry featuring juicy beef, ramen noodles and fresh veggies in a hoisin-based sauce. Perfect for busy weeknights!

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

SAUCE

  • ¼ cup (60 ml) tamari or all-purpose soy sauce
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp mirin

STIR-FRY

  • 1 tbsp oil (olive oil or a neutral oil)
  • 2 tsp freshly minced garlic
  • 500 g (1 lb 2 oz) minced (ground) beef
  • 250 g (9 oz) ramen noodles (or 3 x 85 g/3 oz ramen noodle packets, or any other instant noodle packets, flavouring sachets discarded)
  • 2 cups (500 ml) water
  • 1 bunch baby bok choy, finely sliced
  • 3 cups (270 g) bean sprouts

TO SERVE

  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • Chilli oil crisp (optional)
  • 1 spring onion (scallion), finely sliced

Instructions

  1. Make the sauce – In a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients.
  2. Stir-fry the beef – Heat the oil in a large, deep, heavy-based pan over medium–high heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds.
  3. Add the minced (ground) beef. Cook, stirring, for 3–4 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula or wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through.
  4. Combine the sauce and beef – Add the sauce, stir to combine and cook for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened. Push the beef to the outside of the pan, creating a space in the middle of the pan.
  5. Add the noodles – Place the noodles in the centre of the pan. Add the water. The noodles will not be completely submerged – they will be half-submerged, and that is okay.
  6. Place the lid on and cook the noodles for 1 minute.
  7. Remove the lid, turn the noodles with tongs, cover and cook for a further 1 minute or until the noodles are just pliable (they will continue cooking when the vegetables are added).
  8. Add the veggies – Remove the lid and toss in the bok choy and bean sprouts. Use tongs to toss the noodles, beef and vegetables until they are well combined. Cook, tossing, for 1 minute until the vegetables have slightly softened to your liking and the noodles have cooked through.
  9. Serve – Serve immediately topped with sesame seeds, chilli oil crisp (if using) and sliced spring onion.
