Preparation

  1. Prepare the noodles following the pack instructions, then drain and set aside. Combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce and sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
  2. Heat the oil in a large wok over high heat and stir-fry the garlic and chilli for 20 seconds until just turning golden. Add the steak and stir-fry for 1 minute until seared and starting to brown. Add the broccoli and stir-fry for another minute, then tip in the noodles and the sauce. Stir-fry for another 1–2 minutes until well combined and piping hot.
  3. Stir through the basil, turn off the heat, and serve immediately to avoid overcooking.
