I tried the hoisin beef noodle bowl recipe exactly as written, and it was absolutely scrumptious! I was unsure whether to stir-fry the beef and broccoli beforehand, so I went ahead and did it. In hindsight, I probably didn't need to if I had sliced the beef thinner (and the recipe didn't specify to cook it beforehand, so that was my mistake). I definitely plan on making this dish again with that tweak. It's now among my go-to quick, hassle-free, and delicious meals.
