I would like to share with you how to prepare the slurpingly delicious Taiwanese beef noodle soup.

This beef noodle soup will surely make your tummy rumble with its umami-rich soup base and nearly melt in the mouth braised beef.  The hunger-inducing aroma is the result of the intermingling of a variety of Asian spices, aromatics, and herbs. It is hard to resist when the remarkable aroma wafts up along with the steam from the bowl.

Taiwanese beef noodle soup 红烧牛肉面 is a popular staple in different countries in Asia.  This Asian beef noodle soup is very similar to the Szechuan style beef noodles soup.  

In this article, I will cook the way how it is served in Malaysia, where I live.  It might be slightly different from the authentic version from Taiwan. However, I will try to stay true to the authentic traditional flavor by adding the Szechuan chili bean sauce as the primary flavoring ingredient.
