Yakisoba (焼きそば)
Report
Yakisoba noodles are a classic Japanese street food made by stir-frying vegetables, meat and ramen noodles with a sweet and savory sauce. My version retains the authentic taste of this festival favorite with a homemade Yakisoba sauce.

Instructions
- To make the yakisoba sauce, stir together 2 tablespoons ketchup, 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce until evenly mixed.
- Boil 260 grams fresh ramen noodles for 1 minute less than what’s stated on the package directions.
- Drain and rinse repeatedly with cold water while agitating with your hand to remove excess starch. When the water runs clear and the noodles are cold, drain well and shake off excess water.
- Toss the noodles with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to coat evenly.
- Heat a large, heavy-bottomed frying pan over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and 100 grams pork belly and stir-fry until the pork starts to brown around the edges.
- Add 100 grams cabbage and 80 grams onions and then season with ¼ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Stir-fry until the vegetables are cooked but still vibrant in color.
- Add the parboiled noodles to the pan and stir-fry to reheat them.
- Pour the yakisoba sauce over the noodles and toss to distribute evenly.
- Stop tossing the yakisoba noodles for 20 seconds at a time to allow the sauce to caramelize.
- Serve the yakisoba sprinkled with aonori with a mound of benishoga on top.
