Vietnamese Lemongrass Beef Noodles

Fragrant lemongrass infuses the beef with citrusy notes that play counterpoint to fish sauce's savory depth. Silky rice noodles carry the bright dressing to every bite, while crisp bean sprouts add refreshing crunch. This dish captures Saigon street food essence with 40% less sodium than traditional recipes.
