Share:
Ingredients
- 10-12 oz noodles rice or wheat
- 2 tablespoons peanut oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 1/2 cup yellow onion diced
- 1 red pepper julienned
- 1 large carrot julienned
- 6 oz Snow peas or sugar snap peas
- 1 cup celery sliced at an angle
- 1/4 cup green onion diced
- fresh cilantro to garnish chopped
- squeeze of fresh lime to finish
Sauce
- 1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 1/3 cup oyster sauce vegetarian
- 1 tablespoon hoisin
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 1/2 cup noodle water
Instructions
- Add a large pot of salted water to the stove and heat on high.
- Heat peanut oil in a large saute pan or wok, on medium. Add onion and ginger to hot oil and saute for 2 minutes.
- Add the garli and the rest of the veggies, stir, and saute for 7-8 minutes or until veggies are softened.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin, lime juice, and cornstarch.
- When the water comes to a boil, add noodles and cook for 3-4 minutes, or however long the noodle package states. If using fresh noodles, only about 2 minutes.
- Just before the noodles are done, scoop out 1/2 cup of the noodle water and add to the sauce. Drain noodles, but do not rinse!
- Add sauce to the pan, and saute for a minute to heat before adding noodles, using tongs to coat noodles and veggies in the sauce. Saute for another minute to coat all of the noodles in the sauce.
- Top with green onions, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of half a lime and serve!
Notes
- Storage / Meal Prep:
- Storage / Meal Prep:
- Prep in advance by cutting/dicing all veggies and mixing the sauce and storing in the fridge before ready to use.
- Store cooked noodles in the fridge for up to 4 days. Re-heat in the microwave or re-fry in the pan. Tip: make a small batch of the sauce to add when reheating.
- Freeze by cooking and letting cool completely before storing in an airtight container. Let thaw completely in the fridge overnight before heating in the microwave or re-frying.
- Substitutions:
- Substitutions:
- Noodles: Use your favorite, just note cooking time will vary based on the noodle.
- Veggies: Use your favorite. We love this dish for veggies that need to be used in the fridge.
- Add Protein: To add your favorite protein, saute with onion and ginger. Remove when fully cooked and set aside. Add back to the pan with sauce and noodles. If adding a protein, we suggest doubling the sauce.
- Sauce: This recipe creates a noodle dish where the noodles and veggies are well coated in sauce. For a more saucy dish, double the sauce - double especially if adding more veggies or a protein.
- Oyster Sauce: While we love using a vegetarian oyster sauce, you can also use a traditional, non-vegetarian friendly oyster sauce! Both are delicious.
- Save the Noodle Water!
- Save the Noodle Water!
- That starchy pasta water will help the sauce stick to the noodles, as will not rinsing all of the starch off of your noodles after they are drained.
