Instructions

- Cook 45 seconds, then flip. Cook 30 seconds then break up the noodles.
- Add green part of green onions and toss well, adding more water if needed to make it saucy.
- Serve immediately!
Notes
- Instant or Ramen Noodles - Make this recipe with any instant noodles like ramen or 2 minute noodles. Any brand or type is fine here, though avoid the extra large ramen packets because you'll struggle to fit two in the pan (though you could break them). Discard seasoning packet.
- Sesame oil - Use toasted sesame oil if you've got it, otherwise untoasted is fine (brown sesame oil = toasted, yellow / clearish = untoasted)
- Dark Soy Sauce has a darker colour and more intense flavour than all purpose and light soy sauce. If you can't find it, any soy sauce is fine here but the sauce colour will be lighter.
- Oyster Sauce - I've noticed vegetarian oyster sauce in the supermarkets lately! Can sub with more Hoisin.
- Mirin - a sweet Japanese cooking sake that is a very common ingredient in Japanese cooking, also used widely by other Asian cuisines. Found in most large supermarkets, or at Asian grocery stores. Can sub with Chinese cooking wine, dry sherry.
- Non alcoholic sub: use 1/2 cup water + 3/4 cup low sodium chicken stock/broth (instead of 1 1/4 cups water) and skip the Mirin.
- Total cook time for noodles should be per packet. Add a touch more water if noodles need longer.
- SCALING recipe up (click servings and slide) - use a larger skillet. Can break noodle cakes if necessary to fit.
