SPICY PAN-FRIED NOODLES

Garlicky, gingery and as spicy as you dare to make it, this Asian-influenced pan-fried noodle dish comes together in minutes. Most of the ingredients are pantry staples, which means you can make it whenever you need a comforting noodle dish that comes with a bite. If you can't find the Chinese egg noodles (also called Hong Kong-style noodles), you can make this with rice noodles or soba. The key is to only boil them until they are halfway done. (They should be pliable but still firm in the center.) They will finish cooking when you pan-fry them.

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup thinly sliced scallions (about a bunch; use both whites and greens)
3 tablespoons soy sauce, more to taste
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons rice wine or sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, more as needed
6 ounces Chinese (also called Hong Kong) egg noodles, soba noodles or rice noodles
2 1/2 tablespoons peanut, grapeseed, safflower or vegetable oil, more as needed
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 large eggs, beaten with a fork
2 cups washed baby spinach or 1/2 cup thawed edamame (optional)
1 to 2 teaspoons sriracha or other hot sauce, or to taste
Juice of 1/2 lime, or to taste
1 cup cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons sesame seeds or chopped roasted peanuts, optional

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the scallions, soy sauce, ginger, rice wine or vinegar, sesame oil and salt. Let stand while you prepare the noodles.
  • In a large pot of boiling water, cook noodles until they are halfway done according to package instructions. (They should still be quite firm.) Drain well and toss with 1/2 tablespoon of the peanut oil to keep them from sticking, and spread them out on a plate or baking sheet.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm the remaining 2 tablespoons of peanut oil. Add the garlic and cook until crisp and golden around the edges, 1 to 2 minutes. Add half the scallion mixture and stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add noodles; stir-fry until noodles are hot and lightly coated with sauce, about 30 seconds. Add eggs, spinach or edamame if using, sriracha, and remaining scallion mixture and continue to stir-fry until the eggs are cooked, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat and stir in lime juice. Garnish with cilantro and sesame seeds or peanuts.

Juice of 1/2 lime, or to taste
1 cup cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons sesame seeds or chopped roasted peanuts, optional

Steps:

  • 1,. In a small bowl, combine the scallions, soy sauce, ginger, rice wine or vinegar, sesame oil and salt. Let stand while you prepare the noodles. 2. In a large pot of boiling water, cook noodles until they are halfway done according to package instructions. (They should still be quite firm.) Drain well and toss with 1/2 tablespoon of the peanut oil to keep them from sticking, and spread them out on a plate or baking sheet. 3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm the remaining 2 tablespoons of peanut oil. Add the garlic and cook until crisp and golden around the edges, 1 to 2 minutes. Add half the scallion mixture and stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add noodles; stir-fry until noodles are hot and lightly coated with sauce, about 30 seconds.

Tips:

  • Use fresh noodles. Fresh noodles will cook more evenly and have a better texture than dried noodles.
  • Soak the noodles before cooking. Soaking the noodles for 30 minutes before cooking will help them to soften and cook more evenly.
  • Use a large pan. A large pan will help to prevent the noodles from sticking together and will allow them to cook more evenly.
  • Cook the noodles in a small amount of oil. A small amount of oil will help to prevent the noodles from sticking together and will also help them to brown.
  • Stir the noodles constantly. Stirring the noodles constantly will help to prevent them from sticking together and will also help them to cook evenly.
  • Do not overcook the noodles. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and will not have a good texture.
  • Add vegetables and protein to your noodles. Vegetables and protein will add flavor and nutrients to your noodles.
  • Serve the noodles immediately. Noodles are best served immediately after they are cooked.
