Components Required

Okay, let's explore into what you'll need to whip up these awesome soy noodles! First, you're gonna need 500g – that's about 1lb – of fresh yellow or white noodles. Medium thickness is the way to go!

Grab 2 tablespoons of oil. Vegetable, canola, or peanut – whatever floats your boat, really! Next, snag 8 green onions, and don't forget 2 garlic cloves. Chop 'em finely; no big chunks allowed!

Now, for that magical sauce, you'll require 2 teaspoons of sesame oil – toasted, if you've got it. Add to that, 2 teaspoons of light soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of dark soy sauce – gives it that rich color, you know? – 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce for a little sweetness, and 1 tablespoon of mirin. Don't skip the oyster sauce; it's a must! This is very similar to sesame paste, but they are each unique!

Preparation Directions

Now that you've rounded up all your ingredients, let's jump into the fun part—prepping everything before we fire up the stove! First, mix the sauce, that's sesame oil, light and dark soy sauces, oyster sauce, and mirin in a small bowl. It's always a good idea to stock up on all kinds of essential sauces when you visit your local Asian grocery. Seriously, don't skip this; it's where the magic happens!

Next up, prep those green onions—trim the ends and slice them into 2.5-inch lengths, keeping the white and green parts separate. Chop two garlic cloves finely. Now you're set!

Mix the sauce ingredients thoroughly.
Trim and cut green onions; keep white and green parts separate.
Finely chop the garlic cloves.
Measure out everything beforehand (this makes it easier and faster!)
Read the noodle packet directions–don't want to mess that up!

Trust me; having everything ready makes cooking easier.

Cooking Method

Cooking this is super quick, and I promise you're gonna love it! First, you gotta cook those noodles. Follow the package directions – don't mess that up, or they're gonna be gross and mushy! I usually boil 'em; just start the timer when you dump 'em in!

Next, drain 'em and rinse 'em quick under the tap so they don't stick. Shake off that water – nobody likes soggy noodles! Now, it's sauté time! Heat some oil – like, 2 tablespoons – in a big pan or wok.

Toss in the white parts of your green onions and cook for 20 seconds, then add your chopped garlic. Stir for 10 seconds 'til it's light golden. Don't burn it! Add your noodles and pour over that awesome sauce you made.

Toss it all together for a minute and a half – get those noodles caramelized, yum! Now, add the green parts of the onions and cook 'em 'til they're just wilted. You're basically done!

Serving Advice

Once your noodles are tossed perfectly and those green onions are just wilted, think about how you're gonna serve 'em up, because presentation counts, right? I like to swirl 'em into a pretty pile – like a golden noodle mountain!

Here's how I make 'em extra special:

Sesame seeds: A sprinkle adds nutty flavor and looks great!
Chili flakes: Give it a kick if you're feeling brave.
Extra green onions: Fresh is always best, right?!
Protein boost: grilled chicken or tofu are great options.
Side dish: Pairs with everything Asian (you know, like these noodles)!

I usually serve these soy noodles as a side dish with something like grilled chicken or fish. But hey, they're so good, sometimes I just eat 'em straight from the wok with a fork! Don't judge, you might do the same thing! Just promise you'll share! These are the ultimate soy noodles– supreme soy noodles!
