Spicy Pan-Fried Noodles

A request from today’s band for noodle stir fry resulted in this fantastic recipe for Spicy Pan-Fried Noodles. It’s laced with a sesame-soy sauce that coats the noodles perfectly thanks to some eggs added while stir-frying. Lots of edamame and peanuts add wonderful contrasting texture. Heat up the spice as needed with more sriracha.

Spicy Pan-Fried Noodles

Ingredients:

1 cup thinly sliced green onions both white and green parts)
3 tablespoons soy sauce, more to taste
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons rice wine or sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
6 ounces Chinese egg noodles, soba noodles or rice noodles
2 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil, more as needed
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 large eggs, beaten with a fork
2 cups baby spinach or 1/2 cup thawed edamame (I used edamame)
1 to 2 teaspoons sriracha or other hot sauce, or to taste
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 cup cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons sesame seeds and/or chopped roasted peanuts, optional

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, combine the green onions, soy sauce, ginger, rice wine, and sesame oil. Set aside.

2. In a large pot of boiling water, cook noodles until they are halfway done according to package instructions. Drain and toss with 1/2 tablespoon of the vegetable oil to keep them from sticking.

3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add half of the green onion mixture and stir-fry for 1 minute.

4. Add noodles and stir-fry until the noodles are hot and lightly coated with sauce, about 30 seconds. Add eggs, spinach or edamame, sriracha, and remaining green onion mixture and continue to stir-fry until the eggs are cooked, 1 to 2 minutes longer.

5. Remove from heat and stir in lime juice. Garnish with cilantro, sesame seeds and peanuts.

Serves 2 (doubles easily)
