VEGETABLE NOODLE STIR FRY

Steps:

• Chop the spring onions, peel and chop the ginger and garlic cloves.
• Chop the mushrooms, and julienne cut the peeled carrots and pepper (it can be of any colour).
• Heat up the oil in a pan or wok, making sure it's on a high heat, add the chopped spring onions, garlic and ginger, and stir fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
• Add the chopped mushrooms, carrots and pepper, and stir fry for about 2 minutes, until they begin to soften.
• Boil the noodles according to the packet instructions, drain and set aside.
• Combine the soy sauces, sesame oil, vinegar and sugar, and add the sauce to the vegetables, leaving it to cook for 1-2 minutes.

VEGETABLE STIR FRY NOODLES

Steps:

• Slice vegetables into matchsticks.
• Start cooking noodles according to package directions.
• In a large skillet, over high heat, add 2 tbl sesame oil.
• Add in the vegetables, and using tongs, stir fry until vegetables have released all their liquid and start to caramelize. This will take at least 6-8 minutes. Stir occasionally.
• While the vegetables are cooking, mix together the ingredients for the stir fry sauce. I like to use a small mason jar to shake well, but you can also just mix in a small bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Set aside.
• After the vegetables are done, add in mirin if using, along with a splash of water to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits.
• Add in the cooked noodles, along with the sauce. Using tongs, stir to coat until heated through. Enjoy!

THAI STIR FRIED NOODLES WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Boil noodles in lightly-salted water until 'al dente', veering on the side of undercooked (you will be stir-frying them later so avoid overcooking them now). Drain and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking. Set aside.
• Place all 'Stir-Fry Sauce' ingredients together in a cup, stirring well to dissolve the sugar. Set aside.
• Heat a wok or large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add oil and swirl around, then stir-fry the garlic, ginger, and shallot/onion 1 minute.
• Add the carrots plus 1-2 tablespoons of the stir-fry sauce you made earlier - enough to keep ingredients frying nicely. Stir-fry 2 minutes, until carrots soften slightly.
• Add the mushrooms, broccoli and red pepper, plus 3-4 more tablespoons of the stir-fry sauce. Continue stir-frying until mushrooms and red pepper soften and broccoli turns bright green but is still crisp (3-4 minutes).
• Now add the noodles plus remaining stir-fry sauce. Using 2 utensils, lift and turn the noodles in the pan to combine with the vegetables. Stir-fry in this way 3-5 more minutes, or until you are happy with the softness/texture of the noodles. During the last 1 minute of cooking time, fold in the bean sprouts.
• Taste-test the noodles, adding up to 1 more tablespoons fish sauce or soy sauce if not salty or flavorful enough. If too salty for your taste OR too sweet, add 1/ to 1 tablespoons more lime juice. If too sour, sprinkle over a little more sugar. More chili can be added if you prefer it spicier.
• Serve immediately in bowls or plates, topping with a sprinkling of fresh coriander or basil. More fresh bean sprouts can also be added as a topping. ENJOY!
