Preparation:

    Step 1
  • In a large saucepan, bring salted water to a boil.
  • Step 2
  • Heat a large skillet with high sides over high heat. Add oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. When the oil is hot, add the garlic, ginger, beans, and onion and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the hoisin sauce and cook, stirring, for about 2 minutes. Add the broth and wine and bring to a simmer.
  • Step 3
  • Add the beef substitute and reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 30–45 minutes, until the mixture reaches a sauce-like consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Step 4
  • Add the noodles to boiling water and cook until al dente, about 5 minutes for fresh noodles or 10–15 minutes for dry noodles. Drain thoroughly and divide the noodles among serving bowls. Drizzle with the sauce, then top with cucumbers, carrots, and sprouts and serve.
