Easy How-To
Let’s Get Cooking!
First things first, boil your water… let it simmer for a minute or two. Once it’s bubbling, toss in your noodles and cook them till they’re al dente—that’s about 3-5 minutes, but hey, check the package just in case! Drain them and rinse under cold water—this stops them from getting mushy… set aside. Now, let’s mix our sauce! In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, that oyster sauce if you’re using it, sesame oil, a pinch of sugar, and white pepper. Stir it till the sugar’s dissolved. Next, heat a big pan or wok on medium. Add a splash of vegetable oil, throw in the garlic and ginger, and sauté till fragrant—it’s magic, trust me! Now introduce bell peppers, broccoli, and snap peas; you want them to sizzle for a few minutes until they’re vibrant but still crunchy. Then, bring in your noodles and sauce—toss everything together, let those flavors mingle for a minute! Finally, fold in those green onions, and you’re almost there. Just plate it up, and don’t forget to sprinkle some sesame seeds on top. Voila!
Good to Know
- Feel free to switch up the noodles—rice noodles or even zoodles if you’re feeling fancy!
- If you’re looking for added protein, throw in some cooked chicken, shrimp or even tofu while you’re at it.
