Tips:

  • Choose the right noodles: Thin, round noodles like ramen or soba noodles work best for this dish. They cook quickly and absorb the sauce well.
  • Make sure the chili oil is flavorful: The chili oil is a key component of this dish, so make sure it's flavorful and spicy. You can use store-bought chili oil or make your own by heating up sesame oil and adding chili flakes or chopped chili peppers.
  • Don't overcook the noodles: The noodles should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and won't hold the sauce as well.
  • Add the sauce to the noodles while they're hot: This will help the sauce to soak into the noodles and create a more flavorful dish.
  • Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds: These garnishes add color and flavor to the dish. You can also add other toppings like chopped peanuts, cilantro, or a fried egg.

Conclusion:

Sesame noodles with chili oil and scallions is a quick and easy dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal or a casual lunch. It's flavorful, spicy, and satisfying, and it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy noodle dish, give this recipe a try.
