Instructions

  1. Place frozen udon noodles in hot water and gently loosen them using chopsticks, being careful not to break them. Once they’re separated, drain them, run under cold water, and set them aside.
  2. In a bowl, combine the sauce ingredients. Set aside.
  3. Heat a wok on medium-high heat. Add about a tablespoon of oil, then add in cabbage and cook until it becomes golden along the edges.
  4. Add onions to cook until they start getting slightly soft but still crunchy. Toss in the garlic and saute for a couple more seconds, until it’s fragrant.
  5. Add in carrots and mushrooms and cook for about 2 - 3 minutes, or until the carrots become slightly tender and the mushrooms are soft.
  6. Add in noodles and pour sauce on top. Gently stir so the noodles don’t break. Cook until the sauce has been completely absorbed.
  7. Top with green onions and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Udon Noodles: I love udon noodles because they have an irresistible chewy texture. You can easily find them in local Asian markets in the refrigerated or frozen sections. I love keeping frozen udon noodles on hand for quick and satisfying meals!
  • Vegetables: Feel free to toss in your favorite veggies or those forgotten ones hiding in the depths of your fridge. This recipe is a delicious way repurpose them!
  • Regular / Light vs Dark Soy Sauce: Regular and light soy sauces are commonly used for their salty flavor. However, for that deep rich color in your dish, add dark soy sauce, which can be found at local Asian markets. Keep in mind,  omitting it will result in lighter-colored noodles.
  • Protein: You can add protein if you'd like - thinly sliced chicken, beef, or large shrimp work well! Just use some of the sauce to marinate the protein while prepped the rest of the ingredients, sauté the meat before adding the cabbage, then follow the rest of the recipe instructions.
