RECIPE: BEEF TOMATO CHOW MEIN
1/2 pack fresh Cantonese style egg noodles
1/4 lb lean beef, thinly sliced
Sodium Bicarbonate
8 small tomatoes
2 medium onions
2 tbsp onion powder
1 large clove of garlic
Sauce:
1/4 cup white wine
3/4 cup water
3–4 tsp beef stock concentrate
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp sugar
3 tbsp Heinz Chili sauce
1 tbsp corn starch
1 tbsp beef au jus powder
Combine all sauce ingredient into a bowl, and mix well.
Place the thinly sliced beef into a bowl with Sodium Bicarbonate powder, and coat thoroughly. Cover with Saran wrap, and set aside in refrigerator for 30 minutes minimum.
Chop the onions into 1/8 or 1/16 pieces. Finely chop the garlic. Slice the tomatoes into halves.
Boil the egg noodles for two minutes, and then rinse with cold water until cold and set aside. Heat a wok at highest temperature and add 3–4 tbsp vegetable oil. Add the noodles and top them with 1 tbsp onion powder. Fry the noodles on one side only until they darken, about 5–6 minutes. Add more oil half way through. Once cooked place the noodles onto a serving plate, and set aside in a warm oven.
