Ingredients

See recipe card for quantities.

  • Fresh Udon Noodles – Best if homemade using this homemade udon noodle recipe! If you’re in a hurry, use pre-cooked udon noodles from the supermarket. I wouldn’t recommend dried udon as they have a different texture and taste.
  • Broccoli – Adds a great crunch & vitamins.
  • Shiitake Mushrooms – Best to buy fresh. If using dried shiitakes, you need to soak them for 10 minutes in hot water before using them for this recipe.
  • Ginger, Garlic, Scallion – Adds extra flavor!
  • Sesame Seeds – For garnishing! Best to use roasted sesame seeds. Black roasted sesame also tastes great here.
  • Soy Sauce, Rice Vinegar, Sesame Oil, Sugar, Sambal Oelek – Makes the lightly spicy stir-fry sauce. Instead of rice vinegar, you can use lime juice. Replace Sambal Oelek with Sriracha sauce, red pepper flakes, or omit it if you don’t like it spicy.

Variations

  • Vegetables: Taste delicious with carrots, bell peppers, green beans, baby corn, sugar snap peas, cabbage, bok choy, or zucchini. Just finely slice them!
  • Mushrooms: Instead of shiitake, feel free to use button mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, king oyster mushrooms, or enoki (available at Asian stores).
  • Protein-Rich: Mix in some fried tofu to add some protein.
  • Nuts: Replace sesame seeds with chopped peanuts or cashews.

Storage Instructions

Stored in an airtight container in the fridge, the noodles stay fresh for 2 days. Reheat in a wok, skillet, or microwave.
