Ingredients

  • 1 packet udon noodles, uncooked or 13 oz vacuum packed pre-cooked noodles
  • 2½ c stir fry vegetables, chopped e.g. mushrooms, bok choy, onions, broccolini
  • 2 stalks scallions cut 2 inches long
  • ½ lb ground pork substitute: chicken, turkey, shrimp
  • 1 tbs avocado oil

Yaki Udon Noodle Sauce

  • 2½ tbs dark soy sauce
  • 2 tbs oyster sauce
  • 1 tbs mirin rice wine
  • 2 teaspoon brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon rice wine vinegar

Instructions

Udon Noodles

  • Prepare udon noodles according to package instructions. For prepared: remove your udon noodles from its package and add it to a pot of boiling water. Frozen udon noodles can be added directly to the pot of boiling water.
  • Stir gently until your udon noodles are separated and pliable. This should take about 10 minutes for uncooked, 1 - 2 minutes for pre-cooked.
  • Rinse and drain your noodles under cold water. If not using right away, drizzle on a little bit of oil to keep them from sticking.

Stir Fry

  • Heat your pan over high heat and add the oil. Add onions first to cook down 2 minutes, then add in the ground meat and stir fry until almost cooked.
  • Add the rest of the vegetables and stir fry until meat is fully cooked and vegetables are soft.
  • Next add in the noodles, sauce, and scallions. Toss to combine well and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Why Avocado Oil? Avocado oil can take the heat! Avocado oil is by far the safest oil for high heat cooking, due to its extremely high smoke point of 500°F. You can use avocado oil just like any other regular frying oil, while also making a healthier choice.
  • Cooking the Udon Noodles: for udon noodles that come precooked, avoid overcooking them as they can get too soft quickly.
  • Leftovers: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
