Step 1
Cook the 8 oz wheat noodles in boiling water until al dente, about 6-8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
In a bowl, toss the 0.5 lb beef slices with 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tsp ground cumin. Let marinate for 5 minutes.
Step 3
Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until shimmering.
Step 4
Add the beef in a single layer and sear until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan.
Step 5
Reduce heat to medium, add the remaining 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp ground cumin, and 0.5 tsp chili flakes. Stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 6
Return the beef to the pan, add the cooked noodles, and toss everything together for 2 minutes until well coated and heated through.
Step 7
Serve topped with 3 sliced green onions and 0.25 cup cilantro leaves.
