Ingredients
200g beef (ribeye, sirloin, or flank steak)
2 portions ramen noodles (fresh or instant without seasoning packet)
2 tablespoons gochujang
1 ½ tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar or honey
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon sriracha
2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
1. Slice the beef thinly against the grain and place it in a bowl.
2. Add 1 tablespoon gochujang, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, ½ tablespoon brown sugar, 1 minced garlic clove, ½ tablespoon sesame oil, and ½ tablespoon rice vinegar to the beef. Mix well and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
3. In a separate bowl, mix 1 tablespoon gochujang, ½ tablespoon soy sauce, ½ tablespoon brown sugar, 1 minced garlic clove, ½ tablespoon sesame oil, and ½ tablespoon rice vinegar. Add a splash of warm water to loosen it into a sauce.
4. Cook ramen noodles according to the package, then drain and toss with a few drops of sesame oil.
5. Heat a grill pan or skillet on medium-high and sear the beef in batches until browned and slightly charred, about 1–2 minutes per side.
6. Mix mayo and sriracha in a small bowl to make the creamy topping.
7. Place noodles in serving bowls, pour over the spicy sauce, and toss to coat.
8. Top with grilled beef, a spoonful of creamy sauce, chopped green onions, and sesame seeds.
9. Serve immediately and enjoy hot!
Notes
Use very thin slices of beef to ensure fast cooking and maximum flavor absorption.
You can prep the marinade ahead of time and cook the beef fresh for best results.
Don’t skip the creamy topping—it adds balance and richness to the spice.
