Ingredients
Teriyaki Sauce
- 1 tablespoon ginger, (grated)
- 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds, (crushed)
- 2 tablespoon sake
- 2 tablespoon mirin
- 3 tablespoon shoyu soy sauce, (or any other soy sauce)
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
Stir-fry
- neutral oil, (for stir-frying)
- 4 oz shiitake mushrooms, (stems removed and caps sliced)
- 1 large red bell pepper, (cored and sliced)
- 1 head baby bok choy, (leaves torn)
- 3 large green onions, (whites chopped into 1" pieces and greens sliced thinly for garnish)
- 8 oz udon noodles
- Sesame seeds, (for garnish
Instructions
- Start by making the teriyaki sauce, combine all the sauce ingredients and stir well to combine.
- Heat a wok or large fry pan to high heat. Add some oil and stir fry peppers and mushrooms until slightly wilted and browned, about 3-4 minutes (depending on how hot your stove is.) Next, add the bok choy and green onion whites and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes more. Remove from wok.
- Bring a pot of water to boil and gently add the udon noodles and cook until the noodles separate easily, about 2 minutes. Drain the noodles.
- Add the udon noodles to the wok under high heat. Quickly add the teriyaki sauce and stir fry until the sauce is almost absorbed, about 2-3 minutes then add the vegetables and toss until warmed through. Serve with some toasted sesame seeds and green onions.

Notes
- Try finding real mirin for a good teriyaki! Most grocery store mirin is just corn syrup, it still tastes good but real mirin is something special!
