-
Slice the filet mignon across the grain into strips measuring approximately 2 x 1/2 x 1/4-inch.

In a mixing bowl, combine the vegetable oil (for marinating), cornstarch (for marinating), dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, hoisin sauce, red cooking wine, sugar (for marinating), salt, and pepper.

Add the sliced beef to the marinade mixture and toss to coat evenly. Let marinate for 15 minutes.
-
Heat the oil (for deep frying noodles) in a deep-fryer or large pot to 400°F (200°C).
-
Carefully place the skein of rice noodles into the hot oil. They will puff up immediately. Remove and drain on paper towels.
-
Heat a wok or skillet over high heat. Add the vegetable oil (for frying) and coat the sides and bottom.
-
Add the chopped onions to the wok and stir-fry for 1 minute.
-
Add the marinated beef strips to the wok. Stir-fry for 2 minutes, stirring minimally to allow searing.

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch (for sauce), sugar (for sauce), light soy sauce (for sauce), dark soy sauce (for sauce), oyster sauce, and water until smooth.
-
Pour the sauce mixture into the wok with the beef and onions. Stir continuously for 1 minute until the sauce thickens and coats the beef. Remove from heat.

Spoon the beef and onion mixture over the puffed rice noodles to serve.
