PREPARATION:
Trim and discard fat from beef. Cut beef across the grain into 3- by 2- by ¼ inch slices.

Set wok in a ring stand and add oil to a depth of 1 ½ to 2 inches. Place over high heat until oil reaches about 375 degrees F.
Add half the bean thread noodles and deep-fry for about 5 seconds or until they puff and expant. Turn over and cook other side. Lift out and drain on paper towels.
Cook remaining noodles. Place noodles on a serving platter, pressing down on noodles to flatten slightly; set aside. Remove all but 2 Tablespoons oil from wok.
Add beef, 6 or 7 pieces at a time, and cook for about 1 to 1½ minutes on each side or until done to your liking.
As beef is cooked, transfr it to a bowl; set aside while cooking remaining beef. Return all beef to wok and place over medium heat. Pour sauce over beef and cook, stirring to coat well, for 2 minutes.
