Vietnamese Shaking Beef and Garlic Noodles is a recipe that is very common in most Vietnamese restaurants, but I wouldn’t say it’s authentic. The more traditional way to serve Shaking Beef is over red rice or white rice. Somewhere along the way garlic noodles became popular to pair with Shaking Beef. Either way you choose to eat this dish it you will love it!
