This is a classic stir-fry noodle dish you can customise to suit yourself: replace the beef with chicken or prawns; change up the noodles with hokkien or thin egg noodles. If you like it spicy, add some chilli sauce after plating, or put a teaspoon of chilli flakes in with the garlic. You are in the driver's seat.
