FRIED GARLIC PASTA
This is for garlic lovers! Tiny pieces of garlic are fried in olive oil and served over pasta, then topped with Parmesan cheese. Don't be scared off by the amount of garlic used, it caramelizes and sweetens as it fries in olive oil. It has become a favorite in my family, including my kids.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Loosen the noodles and add to the pot. When the water returns to a boil, the noodles should be nearly done (2 to 3 minutes; or follow the package directions). Check the noodles by taste or touch. They should be tender but springy. Drain thoroughly.
- In a wok or skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of the garlic oil over high heat until shimmering-hot. Add the raw garlic, stir-frying until fragrant but not browned, a few seconds. Add the noodles and toss to coat. Add the shoyu, oyster sauce, and dashi powder and continue to stir-fry for another minute or two until the sauce is absorbed.
- Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the noodles to a serving plate or individual bowls. Reheat the fried garlic in the microwave until crispy, 10 to 15 seconds, keeping an eye (and a nose) on it so it doesn't burn.
- Garnish the noodles with scallions and fried garlic before serving. Top with sambal if desired.
STIR-FRIED GINGER NOODLES
Steps:
- Bring a large heavy-based saucepan of salted water to a boil and blanch the noodles for about 2 minutes. Refresh under cold water.
- Peel and finely chop the ginger and garlic. Cut the chile in half lengthwise, deseed, and finely chop. Shred the spring onions and pick the leaves from the cilantro. Wipe and slice the shiitake mushrooms.
- Heat the sunflower oil in a large heavy-based wok. When hot, fry the garlic, ginger, chile, and mushrooms until brown, about 3 minutes. Add the noodles and spring onion; stir to combine, about 3 minutes.
- To serve, arrange the noodles in a serving dish and garnish with cilantro leaves.

FRIED GARLIC
Without the savory crunch of fried garlic, my kitchen wouldn't be the same. I use it on rice, noodles, soups, salads, vegetables, and anything else that benefits from a sprinkle of these magical golden flavor nuggets. For the Fried Garlic Noodles, I showed you how to make a quick version of fried garlic in the microwave. If you want to take your fried garlic game to the next level, though, you can fry it in large batches like we do at Tin Roof, since it will keep for several weeks. Though more labor-intensive, this cooking method produces a crispier, evenly browned fried garlic that packs a ridiculous amount of roasted garlickiness. Plus, you'll end up with an infused oil that can be used in other dishes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
- In a food processor, pulse the garlic until finely minced.
- Fill a medium-width, deep-sided pot halfway with water and bring to a boil, then turn off the heat. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Transfer the garlic to a sieve and submerge in the hot water, blanching for about 2 minutes. Remove and dunk the garlic in the ice water until cooled, then drain well and spread evenly onto the lined baking sheet. Bake until the garlic is dry to the touch, 12 to 15 minutes.
- While the garlic is drying, empty out the pot and dry well. Fill the pot with at least 2 inches of oil, making sure to leave a few inches of clearance from the top of the pot. Heat the oil over medium-high until it reaches 350F (use a thermometer).
- Have the baking sheet lined with paper towels at the ready. Add the garlic and fry until the bubbles begin to subside and the garlic turns golden and rises to the surface, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the fried garlic back to the paper towels and let cool completely. Season generously with salt, then transfer to a sealable container and store in a cool, dry place for up to 3 weeks. Reserve the garlic-flavored frying oil for future use.

Tips:
- Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has a more pungent and flavorful taste than pre-packaged or jarred garlic. For the best flavor, use fresh garlic cloves whenever possible.
- Don't overcrowd the noodles: When cooking the noodles, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the noodles from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to stick together.
- Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help to prevent the noodles from sticking. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or frying pan.
- Cook the noodles in batches: If you're cooking a large amount of noodles, cook them in batches. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
- Add the vegetables and sauce at the end: The vegetables and sauce should be added to the noodles at the very end of the cooking process. This will help to prevent them from overcooking and becoming mushy.
Conclusion:
Fried garlic noodles are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following the tips above, you can make sure that your fried garlic noodles turn out perfectly every time.
