Ingredients
- 1 lb udon noodles frozen kind recommended
- ½ lb pork belly sliced or sub with chicken, shrimp, pork or steak
- 1 cup cabbage thinly sliced
- ¾ cup mushrooms sliced
- ½ cup carrot julienned
- ½ onion julienned
- 1 green onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or any neutral oil
Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce regular
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon mirin
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoon granulated sugar white
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients as listed above. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, soak udon noodles in hot boiling water for 30-60 seconds or until loosened. Strain immediately.
- In a large skillet or large wok, heat vegetable oil or any neutral oil over medium-high heat.
- Fry pork belly until golden brown and most of the fat has rendered out, about 2-3 minutes. Remove pork belly from frying pan and set aside.
- Reduce to medium heat. Stir fry garlic and onions until translucent, about 30 seconds. Add cabbage, mushrooms, and carrots and fry until softened, a few minutes. Feel free to add ¼ cup of water to help cook the veggies and allow the water to fully evaporate before moving onto the next step.
- Toss in noodles, sauce, and pork belly. Mix until noodles are coated in sauce. Remove off heat.
- Garnish with green onions and enjoy!
