Categories     Lunch

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 20

3.5 oz udon noodles ((100 gm.))
3 cups water
Salt
3 tablespoons peanut butter ((smooth or crunchy))
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes
Salt
Pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cloves garlic (chopped)
1 inch ginger (chopped)
1 cup shiitake mushrooms (sliced)
1 cup broccoli florets
2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup carrot (julienned)
1/4 cup green onions (chopped)
Sesame seeds (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Heat water in a large saucepan. Add salt. Once it starts to boil, add noodles. Give it a quick stir and boil for 9-12 minutes (or as instructed in the packaging).
  • Once it's boiled, turn off the heat and drain. Drizzle a bit of olive oil and gently mix using 2 forks. This prevents the noodles from sticking (and drying out) while we're preparing the rest of the ingredients.
  • In a mixing bowl, add all the peanut sauce ingredients. Stir and mix until smooth. If you're using crunchy peanut butter (like I have) you might have to stir it vigorously. Set aside.
  • Set a saute pan over medium heat. Add oil.
  • Once it's hot, add ginger + garlic and stir-saute until golden, around 1-2 minutes.
  • Add mushroom + broccoli and stir-saute for 1-2 minutes. Pour in 2 tablespoons of water. Cover the pan and let it cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the boiled noodles + carrots + peanut sauce. Gently fold and mix until the noodles are completely coated with the sauce.
  • Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot or cold.

Tips:

  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your udon noodle dish a more vibrant flavor and texture. If you can, try to buy vegetables that are in season.
  • Don't overcook the noodles: Udon noodles should be cooked until they are al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Make the peanut sauce ahead of time: The peanut sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the dish.
  • Serve the dish immediately: Udon noodles are best served immediately after they are cooked. The noodles will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

This vegetarian udon noodle dish with peanut sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. The udon noodles are hearty and filling, while the peanut sauce is creamy and flavorful. The vegetables add a pop of color and nutrition. You can also get creative with the toppings and add things like crumbled tofu, roasted peanuts, or chopped cilantro.
