STIR-FRIED SPICY GARLIC UDON NOODLES

Steps:

• If you're using instant fresh udon noodles or 'cakes' in packets, you can simply soak them in hot water for a few minutes or run them through hot water to carefully separate them. These noodles can also easily break apart so don't force it when they're clumped together.
• Prepare the sauce by mixing everything together. You can see the notes below and adjust the spice level according to your reference. Set the sauce aside.
• Heat a large wok or non-stick pan over medium high heat. Add in the oil.
• One hot, add in the tofu. You can continue to crumble this as needed, especially if there are big chunks.
• Leave the tofu untouched over medium heat for 3-4 minutes for it to lightly crisp and brown at the bottom. It'll also start to dry up and resemble minced 'meat' as it cooks and the water evaporates.
• Season the tofu with the dark soy sauce. Mix well.
• Leave the tofu to cook for another 3-4 minutes until it completely dries up and resembles minced meat. Afterwards, move the tofu to the side of the pan.
• Add 1 tbsp oil into the pan. Over medium heat, sauté the minced garlic.
• Afterwards, add in half of of the chopped scallions or green onions. Cook for 1 minute.
• Add in the shiitake mushrooms and then stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until tender.
• Once the mushrooms are cooked to your liking, add in the noodles.
• Pour the sauce over the noodles and mix well.
• Leave the noodles to cook over medium high heat for 2-3 minutes.
• Add in some water to cook down the noodles, if needed. You can start with 1-2 tbsp and mix well. You can see the notes below.
• Taste the noodles and feel free to season with some salt and upper, if desired. Once the noodles are cooked to your liking, turn off the heat.
• Top the noodles with more chopped scallions or green onions. Serve and enjoy while hot!

SPICY ASIAN RAMEN NOODLES

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, rice vinegar, chili garlic sauce, and ginger together in a small bowl. Add peanut butter, whisking until well combined, and set aside.
• Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a pot. Discard the flavor packet and add ramen noodles to the boiling water. Cook until noodles are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain noodles, reserving some of the noodle water in case you need to thin out the sauce later.
• Pour sauce over ramen noodles, tossing until well coated. If sauce is too thick, thin out with a small amount of the reserved noodle water until you reach your desired consistency. Your hot noodles will soak up the sauce. Garnish with peanuts and green onion, and serve.
