Notes
Thinly sliced sirloin or flank steak works best for tenderness.
Use smooth peanut butter for a creamy broth; chunky adds texture.
Keep noodles separate if storing leftovers to avoid sogginess.
Adjust spice with more curry paste or sriracha for heat-lovers.
Swap beef for chicken, tofu, or mushrooms for a variation.
