About This Dish:
I head over to my freezer when I find myself hungry and in need of a substantial and healthy Japanese meal at home. Why? Because I usually have a stash of udon hidden in my freezer! Yaki-Udon (Fried Udon) is one of Japan's most popular noodles, udon, stir fried with a bunch of vegetables and optionally meat. This recipe adds a delicious taste to the dish by adding a little bit of sesame oil and Japanese soy sauce! Be creative in your additions and you might end up with an amazing dish for lunch! My mom actually used to make this for me for breakfast. Good old days :)

What You Need:
(Makes 2 servings)
  • 1 package of udon noodles (I use frozen ones)
  • (Optional) Vegetables of your choice (I use onion, cabbage, red pepper, mushrooms, carrots...)
  • (Optional) Meat of your choice (I often use thin sliced pork)
  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 - 2 tbsp Japanese soy sauce
  • Salt & Pepper to taste


Steps:
  1. Cook the udon noodles as instructed on package (I usually throw in the vegetables in the last few minute or so to boil together with the noodles)
  2. Heat a pan on MEDIUM heat and throw in the noodles, vegetables and meat (if you have it). Season with soy sauce, salt and pepper. 
  3. At the end, season with sesame oil and serve!
