- Place rice noodles in a large heatproof bowl; pour boiling water over noodles. Let sit until translucent but still slightly chewy, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain, and set aside.
- Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Season beef with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and rub with 1 tablespoon oil. Sear beef in pan until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Sear other side, 3 to 4 minutes more. Remove beef.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining tablespoon oil, mushrooms, and garlic; cook, scraping up any browned bits, until mushrooms are tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add stock, soy sauce, vinegar, and 2 cups water to the pan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from heat; stir in carrots, cabbage, scallions, and bean sprouts.
- Cut beef diagonally into very thin slices. Ladle the broth and vegetables into serving bowls, and place the noodles and sliced beef on top.
