Ingredients
150 g (5 oz) dried wheat noodles or 300 g fresh noodles
½ cup coriander, finely chopped
2 spring onions, finely chopped
1 tbsp homemade crispy chilli oil (optional)
1 tbsp chilli powder or flakes (adjust to taste)
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ tbsp white sugar
3 tbsp neutral oil (sunflower, grapeseed, or canola)
1½ tbsp soy sauce
½ tbsp black vinegar
½ tsp sesame oil
Instructions
- Boil noodles according to package instructions until just tender. Drain, reserving a splash of cooking water.
- In a large heatproof bowl, add garlic, chilli powder, and sugar.
- Heat neutral oil in a small pan until hot but not smoking, then carefully pour over the garlic-chilli mixture to release aroma.
- Stir in soy sauce, black vinegar, and sesame oil.
- Add cooked noodles and toss until evenly coated, loosening with reserved cooking water if needed.
- Mix in coriander, spring onions, and crispy chilli oil (if using).
- Serve immediately while hot.
Notes
Reduce chilli powder for a milder dish or use a mild chilli variety.
Wheat noodles are traditional, but rice noodles, udon, or spaghetti also work.
Store-bought chilli oil is a fine substitute for homemade.
Black vinegar can be replaced with rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar for a different flavor profile.
Add vegetables or protein for a heartier meal.
