The Lazy Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup, a 10-minute shortcut to a classic comfort food classic, takes around 10 minutes to assemble. The shortcut involves layering smart, umami-rich ingredients such as beef broth, tomato paste, soy sauce, five-spice powder, garlic, and black vinegar into the flavorful base, creating a rich, satisfying broth that tastes like it's been simmering all day. The best part of the recipe is the ability to replicate the slow-simmered taste of the rich, complex flavor with less than 20% of the effort. The noodles and bok choy can be added to the bowl, and pickled mustard greens are optional.
