The first time I had sauteed udon noodles, I fell in love. Most try udon in soups, but the flavors from a hot pan and excellent sauces make this spicy stir-fried version so much better. I mixed together my concoction of Asian flavors and produced this lovely dish that is great for family, friends, and guests. I promise you they will love it more than your generic Asian takeout.

Time 4h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

½ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 ½ tablespoons Sriracha sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 boneless pork loin chops, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 (7 ounce) packages fresh udon noodles
2 cups chopped broccoli florets
1 tablespoon olive oil, or more as needed
½ onion, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped, or more to taste
3 tablespoons bean sprouts, or to taste
3 tablespoons julienned carrot, or to taste
2 tablespoons diced green onion, or to taste

Steps:

  • Mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, Sriracha, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic powder, and pepper together in a small bowl. Combine 1/2 of the marinade with pork in a bowl. Refrigerate, 4 hours to overnight. Reserve remaining marinade for noodles.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook udon in boiling water for 2 minutes; add broccoli to blanch slightly and continue to boil until noodles loosen, about 1 minute more. Strain and set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a wok or deep pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; stir-fry until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add pork, bean sprouts, and carrot; stir-fry until pork is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add drained udon noodles and broccoli. Pour in remaining marinade and toss noodles to absorb flavors, 2 to 3 minutes. Add green onion; toss lightly, 1 to 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right udon noodles: Look for thick, chewy udon noodles made from wheat flour. You can find them in the refrigerated or frozen section of most Asian grocery stores.
  • Prep your vegetables: Cut your vegetables into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly. If you are using frozen vegetables, thaw them before adding them to the soup.
  • Make your own dashi: Dashi is a Japanese soup stock that is essential for making udon soup. You can make your own dashi by simmering kombu (dried kelp) and katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes) in water. Or, you can use a pre-made dashi powder or granules.
  • Add protein: If you want to add protein to your udon soup, you can add chicken, beef, pork, or tofu. Just be sure to cook the protein thoroughly before adding it to the soup.
  • Season to taste: Once your soup is finished cooking, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more soy sauce, mirin, or dashi to taste.

Conclusion:

Spicy udon noodle soup is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. With its rich and flavorful broth, chewy udon noodles, and tender vegetables, this soup is sure to warm you up from the inside out. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this spicy udon noodle soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
