Ingredients
Directions
Slice steak as thinly as possible against the grain and place in bowl. Add 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil, garlic, gin-ger, salt and chili pepper (if using) and toss to coat; set aside.
Place noodles in a large bowl and cover with very hot water; let stand for 10 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water. Drain again and set aside.
Whisk together broth, lime juice, fish sauce and curry paste. Heat a large deep non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear beef until browned all over and transfer to plate. Add remaining oil and sauté noodles for 1 minute. Add broth mixture and pineapple chunks; bring to a boil. Return beef to noodles and toss well to coat and heat through. Stir in cilantro leaves and mint (if using).
Top each serving with sliced sweet red pepper and cucumber to serve. Drizzle each with hoisin sauce if de-sired.

For easier slicing freeze the steak for about 15 minutes to firm up.
