Vietnamese Lemongrass Marinated Beef Rice Noodles Salad

Start by marinating the beef. Combine minced lemongrass, garlic, soy sauce, fish sauce, and sugar in a bowl. Add beef and let it marinate at least 15 minutes, best if overnight.

In a large pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until it is cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.

Prepare the rice noodles as per the package instructions. Set aside.

To assemble the salad, divide the mixed greens, cucumber, bean sprouts and rice noodles equally among four bowls. Top with cooked beef. Garnish with mint, cilantro, and roasted peanuts.

For the dressing, mix lime juice, fish sauce, sugar and chopped chili in a small bowl. Stir until sugar dissolves.

Drizzle the dressing over each salad before serving.
