Spicy, Sour & Chewy Noodles
Chewy noodles with fresh simple ingredients, mixed in a spicy and tangy sauce that's so flavourful.
Ingredients
Aromatics Mixture
- 1 scallion (finely chopped)
- 4 garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tsp sesame seeds
- 1 tbsp crushed peanuts
- 1 tbsp Chinese chili flakes
- 2 tbsp heated neutral oil
Sauce Mixture
- 2 tbsp light soy sauce
- ½ tbsp dark soy sauce
- ½ tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp Chinese black vinegar
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce (for vegetarians, use vegetarian version)
- ½ tbsp sugar
- ½ tsp chicken powder (can sub with salt for vegetarian)
Assembling
- 2 servings noodles of choice (I like using Miki Noodles)
- Cucumber (julienned)
- Cilantro (finely chopped)
- Sauce from above
Instructions
Aromatics Mixture
- In a bowl, mix all the ingredients from the Aromatics Mixture except for the heated oil.
- Then heat up the oil and pour it into the aromatics mixture bowl. It should create a sizzle sound.
Assembling + Adding the Sauce
- In the same bowl from above, add all the sauce ingredients and mix everything together. It should create a vibrant orangey red sauce.
- Cook your noodle of choice. For Miki Noodles, I recommend dunking into iced water after cooking for a more chewy texture. Drain afterwards.
- Prepare each noodle serving in individual bowls.
- Add the cucumber, cilantro, and the sauce to each bowl.
- Mix everything like crazy. Serve and enjoy!
