Ingredients

500 g / 1 lb fresh yellow or white noodles, medium thickness
2 tbsp oil (vegetable, canola, or peanut)
8 green onions, ends trimmed and cut into 7 cm / 2.5” lengths, white parts separated from green parts
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tsp toasted sesame oil
2 tsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp mirin

Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, mix the toasted sesame oil, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, and mirin to create the sauce.
Step 2: Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Once cooked, drain them and rinse quickly under tap water to prevent sticking.
Step 3: Heat the vegetable oil in a large deep non-stick skillet or wok over high heat. Add the white parts of the green onions and stir for about 20 seconds.
Step 4: Add the chopped garlic and stir for an additional 10 seconds until lightly golden and fragrant.
Step 5: Add the drained noodles to the skillet, then pour the prepared sauce over them. Toss continuously for 1½ minutes to allow the noodles to caramelize slightly, enhancing the flavor.
Step 6: Add the green parts of the green onions and toss just until they wilt, about 20 seconds. Serve immediately while hot.

Tips & Variations

For a vegetarian version, substitute oyster sauce with mushroom sauce or hoisin sauce.
If fresh noodles aren’t available, dried noodles can be used but adjust cooking time accordingly.
Adding a pinch of chili flakes can give a nice spicy kick if desired.
Use a high-heat oil like peanut or canola for better stir-frying results.

Storage

Store leftover noodles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over medium heat or microwave until warmed through, adding a splash of water or oil to prevent drying out.
