Ingredients
1/2 250-g pkg rice vermicelli noodles
2 tsp vegetable oil
2 250-g strip loin steaks, about 1-in. thick
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup rice vinegar
2 tbsp dark sesame oil
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp fish sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp minced fresh ginger
1 carrot, peeled and coarsely grated
2 cups baby spinach
Instructions
Soak noodles by separating and placing in a large bowl. Cover completely with hot water. Let stand, stirring frequently, until tender, about 8 to 10 min.
Heat a large frying pan over medium-high. Add oil, then steaks. Cook until meat gives slight resistance when pressed, 3 to 4 min per side if you like medium-rare. Remove from pan and let rest on a cutting board for at least 5 min. Sprinkle steaks with salt and 1/4 tsp pepper.
Whisk vinegar with sesame oil, sugar, fish sauce, garlic and ginger in a large bowl. Assemble salad by draining noodles well. Add to vinegar mixture along with carrot and spinach. Toss until evenly coated. Distribute among 4 plates. Thinly slice steak. Top noodles with steak.

“This is such an easy and delicious recipe. It can even be done in stages. I would add some hot pepper flakes for a spicy version.”
