Method

Cook the egg noodles in boiling water until al dente, drain and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large wok over medium‑high heat; add onion and garlic, sauté 2 minutes.
Crumble the beef patties into the wok, stirring until browned, about 4 minutes.
Add the spinach and toss until wilted, 1 minute.
Stir the noodles back in, season with salt and pepper, and finish with a quick toss.
Serve hot, letting the detective’s story unfold on the plate.

Dry the noodles a minute longer than the package says – they’ll soak up the sauce without turning mushy.
