- 1/4 tsp Vanilla extract
Beef and Noodles
- 2 tsp Vegetable oil divided
- 8 oz Beef sirloin tips
- 1 TBSP All-purpose flour
- 2 tsp Salt divided
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper plus more to taste
- 1/2 cup Yellow onion finely chopped
- 1 cup Mushrooms sliced
- 2 cloves Garlic minced
- 1 TBSP Butter
- 1 TBSP All-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups Beef broth
- 3 oz Egg noodles

House Salad
- 4 cups Spring mix
- 1/2 cup Grape tomatoes halved
- 1/4 cup Cucumber sliced
- 1/4 cup Red onion thinly sliced
- Your choice of salad dressing
Milk
- 16 oz Milk cold
Instructions
- Make the Hong Kong Egg Tart: Prepare the Custard Filling: Dissolve sugar in hot water and cool to room temperature. Whisk in evaporated milk, eggs, and vanilla. Strain the mixture and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Position a rack in the lower third of your oven. Place the tart shells into a muffin pan or tart pan. Fill each tart shell three-quarters full with custard. Place into the oven and immediately reduce oven temperature to 350°F (180°C) and bake for 26–29 minutes, until custard is set. (if a toothpick can stand up in it, it’s done). Cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
- Make the Beef Tips and Sauce: Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
- Toss beef tips with flour, half the salt, and pepper, then sear until browned, about 4–5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Reduce heat to medium, cook the onion until tender, about 5–7 minutes. Add mushrooms and garlic, and cook until mushrooms are tender.
- Add butter to the pot. Once melted, sprinkle in flour and stir constantly to form a roux. Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring until the sauce thickens.
- Return beef tips to the pot and simmer for 8–10 minutes.
- Make the Noodles: Boil egg noodles in salted water according to package instructions. Drain well, toss with butter, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Prepare the House Salad: Combine spring mix, grape tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion in a large bowl. Toss with your favourite salad dressing.
- Serve: Plate the beef tips over buttered noodles. Serve with house salad, a cold glass of milk, and a Hong Kong-style egg tart.
