Preparation
Toast the peanuts
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. In a large, high-sided pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium. Toast the peanuts, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 min., until lightly browned and fragrant. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out and reserve the pan.
Cook the beef & vegetables
Remove the root ends of the bok choy; roughly chop. In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the beef, bok choy and cabbage; season with S&P. Cook, breaking up the meat, 4 to 6 min., until the vegetables are tender and the beef* is cooked through.
Boil the noodles
Meanwhile, add the noodles to the pot of boiling water, separating the strands as you add them; stir gently. Boil, stirring frequently, 1 to 3 min., until al dente. Reserving 1 cup cooking water, drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Make the sauce & combine the noodles
To the pan of beef and vegetables, add the onions, vinegar, soy sauce and ½ the reserved cooking water. Cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, 1 to 2 min., until the sauce has thickened and the beef is coated. Add the noodles and 2 tbsp butter. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until the noodles are coated. If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
Finish & serve
Thinly slice the scallions. Divide the noodles between your bowls. Garnish with the scallions and peanuts. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking ground beef to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
