Caramelized-Scallion Noodles image

The key here is the scallion dressing for the noodles and the bit of oyster sauce you drizzle on for depth and umami. Feel free to substitute in any meats, fish, tofu or vegetables you like for the toppings; this is just a template for any number of quick, delicious meals.

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Salt
6 ounces Chinese broccoli (or other cooking greens), cut into 2-inch pieces
10 ounces fresh noodles (or 6 ounces dry pasta)
6 tablespoons caramelized-scallion sauce (see recipe), or to taste
3 to 4 ounces cooked chicken, ham, tofu, mushrooms or whatever meaty thing you like, sliced, warm
2 soft-boiled eggs, halved
Oyster sauce, to taste
Soy sauce, to taste
Raw ginger or spicy pickles of your choice, julienne, for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of water to boil, and salt it well. Cook the Chinese broccoli until tender, about 4 minutes. Scoop the greens out with a skimmer, and dry well. Keep the water boiling.
  • Cook the noodles according to the package directions. As soon as they're drained, return them to the empty pot, off heat, and dress them with 6 tablespoons of the caramelized-scallion sauce, or to taste. Season with salt, if desired.
  • Divide the noodles into bowls, and top with the Chinese broccoli, the chicken (or whatever protein you choose) and the eggs. Drizzle oyster sauce on the Chinese broccoli, and season the eggs with a few drops of soy sauce. Top with a few pinches of julienne ginger or pickles, and serve immediately.

I'm not a big fan of scallions, but I really enjoyed these noodles. The caramelized scallions were sweet and flavorful, and they paired perfectly with the noodles.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The noodles were overcooked and the sauce was too salty.

Not bad, but not great either. I think I'll stick to my old noodle recipe.

The noodles were a bit too oily for my taste, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try using less oil next time.

These caramelized scallion noodles were a hit! The scallions were perfectly caramelized and the noodles were cooked to perfection. I added some extra vegetables, like broccoli and carrots, to make it a more complete meal. Definitely a keeper!
