Lemongrass Pepper Beef Vermicelli Salad

  • Fast
  • Healthy

Give your palate the heads up to get prepped for zesty freshness, because this beef noodle salad hits with a monsoon of aromatics. There's fragrant lemongrass, a good kick of pepper, herby leaves, bitey radish, acid from lime and a swift and fiery heat (if you're into it). Together with the umami oomph of pan-fried steak, it'll knock your socks all the way off.
