I've been dreaming about the famous Soong Kee Beef Noodles for years and think I finally recreated the recipe! Soong Kee has been serving one of the best Malaysian beef noodles in Kuala Lumpur since 1945 - springy egg noodles drenched in a minced beef sauce and served with a bowl of beef offals.

SOONG KEE BEEF NOODLES - 2 servings
==========
1/2 lb Boneless Beef Short Ribs - cut into small chunks
1 TSP Shaoxing Wine
2 TBSP Bean Paste
2 Garlic Cloves
1 Star Anise
3 Dried Shrimp - soaked in warm water for 15 minutes
1/4 TSP Sichuan Pepper Powder
1/4 TSP White Pepper Powder
1 TBSP Dark Soy Sauce
2 TBSP Kecap Manis - thick, dark sweet soy sauce
1/2 Cup Fried Shallots
2 Cups Water
Beef Balls
Yu Choy
Fresh Egg Noodles
Beef Broth
Cut the boneless short rib into 1" chunks.
Heat up a stainless steel pot on medium-high heat.
Add 2 TBSP neutral oil and pan-fry the beef until browned on all sides.
Add 1 TSP Shaoxing wine to deglaze the pot, making sure you scrape up the bits sticking to the pot.
Mix in the bean paste, garlic, and star anise.
Add 2 cups of water, dried shrimp, sichuan pepper, white pepper, dark soy sauce, kecap manis, and fried shallots.
Mix to combine and bring to a boil.
Cover, turn the heat down to a simmer, and braise for ~1 hour or until beef is super tender.
Take out the beef and chop into a mince, add it back to the sauce, and simmer for another 15 minutes until the sauce has thickened and can coat the back of the spoon.
Cut the beef balls into halves and reheat in a pot of beef broth.
Drain and set aside.
Cook the yu choy in the beef broth, strain and set aside.
Cook noodles according to package instructions, drain, and plate.
There should be a layer of beef fat that has settled to the top of the sauce.
Mix ~1 TSP of beef fat into the noodles, plate with 2 ladles of the beef sauce, and some yu choy.
Serve the beef balls and broth in a separate bowl.

Hello Makitchen! Soong Kee and Ngau Kee were childhood favourites for me whenever I went back to KL to visit my grandfather, and I haven't had it since 2016, so recreating these noodles today using your recipe was a huge nostalgia trip for me! My parents who grew up in KL were saying how it was a huge memory feels trip too. Thanks for the awesome recipe!

Thank you for sharing this recipe. I have experimented twice so far so here is my input. Boil beef (I used beef cuts for soup, which has a good amount of tendon and fat) til tender. Chop up beef and reserve stock, set aside. Saute minced shallot and onion, garlic, ginger and add 1 star anise, using a good amount of oil and with low-med heat until caramelised and browned at the edges. Pour in small amount of stock, add the chopped up beef and a good amount of dark soy or caramel sauce. Add sugar and salt, simmer until reduced. It does taste pretty similar but not 100%. The fermented soybeans must be removed because the taste is too distinctive and is not close to Soong Kee.

oh shoot, this is great insight! i'll definitely try your method :) i agree the soy bean paste is too strong haha it's delicious but as you said, it's not the same.

@@makitchen do try it out and see if it is close, I had a great time cooking your method too😊 You raised a great point which is the sweetness of shallot and onions being a big flavour factor, and the star anise too. Another note: the rest of the beef stock can be seasoned and used for the beefball soup

Black bean should be used but in VERY minimal amount so it's not overpowering. Start off using mince...Soong kee hv pork n beef mince combined...KICAP MANIS is a joke...NAM PLA is the key...I'm a cook by trade, I sell curry laksa...I operate just a stones throw from Soong kee ...Chinatown petaling street...
