    Winter months are upon us, and it's all about slow cooker recipes this season. I mean, who doesn't love a recipe that you can literally throw everything in one pot, turn on a button, and have dinner pretty much ready for you in a few hours? Slow cooker asian beef noodle soup, I have been waiting for you!

    This hearty and oily soup is packed with beef chunks, vegetables, and Asian spices and flavours. You don't need any added vegetable oils because you get all the oily goodness and savoury flavour from the beef's natural fat content through the slow cooking process.

    Once the slow cooking process is complete, we cooked and added bok choy and flat rice noodles. I love the look, texture and flavour of these noodles. But, you can substitute with any Asian noodle (such as udon, lo mein, or ramen noodles) in this beef noodle soup.

    Description

    An easy weeknight dinner option, this hearty and oily slow cooker Asian beef noodle soup is packed with beef chunks, vegetables, noodles, and Asian spices and flavours.


    Ingredients

    • 2 pounds beef chunks (briskets and flanks preferred)
    • 1 small onion, coarsely chopped
    • 5 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
    • 2 carrots, diced
    • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
    • ½ tablespoon apple cider vinegar
    • 2 teaspoon salt
    • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 2 large bok choy
    • 2 servings flat rice noodles
    • 2 eggs, soft-boiled (see notes below for instructions)
    • 2 green onions, sliced

    Instructions

    1. Rinse beef chunks and cook in boiled water for 2 minutes. This is to get rid of the foam so that your soup broth will be clear.
    2. In a slow cooker, add 7 cups of water, the prepared beef chunks, onion, garlic, ginger, carrots, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper. Set to cook for 8 hours on low temperature. When the time is up, the slow cooker should automatically switch to the "warm" setting.
    3. Once the soup is ready, prepare the noodles. In a medium pot, bring water to a boil over high heat and add noodles. Cook for 6 mins while continuously stirring to ensure that the noodles do not stick together or to the bottom of the pot. Then, dip the bok choy into the boiling water for 30 seconds, take it out and set it aside. Drain the noodles.
    4. Assemble the beef noodle soup, in 2 large bowls divide the drained noodles. Add bok choy and a boiled egg on top. Pour in desired amount of beef soup. Add in beef chunks and carrots. Sprinkle on sliced green onions, and add salt and pepper to taste.

    Notes

    How to get the perfect soft-boiled egg: In a small pot, bring water to a boil. Add eggs and cook for 6 minutes, while continuously stirring the eggs clockwise in boiling water for the first minute to allow the egg yolk to sit right in the centre. Once done, remove the eggs and immediately place them in an ice water bath for a few minutes. Peel the egg shell and slice eggs in half.

      Why does the recipe say total time is 4 hours and 10 minutes while the body of your recipe says to set it for 8 hours on low? Confusing.

        Hi Vivian, thanks for catching that! I originally had the recipe set to cook on high for 4 hours, and after re-testing it, I decided it cooks better on low. I forgot to update the time slot, thank you! Just updated.

      What do you do with the green onion? Do you put it in the slow cooker or is it to go in at the end? Thanks

        Hi Emma, you are absolutely correct. The green onions get sprinkled on top at the end, when you have assembled the bowls of soup.

      What a deliciously comforting asian beef soup! We have so many noodles in the pantry right now, and I have been searching for new ways to enjoy them. This is a perfect weeknight / weekend (they all run together anymore, ha!) dinner option!
