A delightful and vibrant dish featuring stir-fried udon noodles, shrimp, and colorful vegetables, all infused with the flavors of garlic and sesame.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 200g udon noodles
  • 100g shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 1 garlic clove (minced)
  • 1 yellow onion (sliced)
  • 120g white mushrooms (sliced)
  • 1 carrot (cut matchstick-style)
  • 1 spring onion (chopped)
  • 2 tbsp neutral oil
  • 1 tbsp regular soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • Pinch salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Boil the udon noodles according to package instructions. Once cooked, drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process and prevent them from sticking.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan over medium-high heat and sauté the minced garlic until it becomes fragrant and golden.
  3. Throw in the sliced mushrooms first, cooking until tender. Then, add the sliced onions and matchstick carrots to the pan, stir-frying for about 2-3 minutes until everything is vibrant and tender.
  4. Add an additional 2 tbsp of oil, and fry the shrimp in the same pan until they turn pink and opaque. Season with soy sauce while they’re cooking for that extra flavor boost.
  5. Add the previously cooked udon noodles to the pan. Stir-fry everything together until the noodles begin to crisp slightly—this is when the magic happens!
  6. In a small bowl, combine the oyster sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Then, pour this mix over the noodles and shrimp, tossing well to ensure everything is evenly coated.
  7. Turn off the heat and fold in the sautéed vegetables from earlier. Let them mingle with the noodles and shrimp for a moment, allowing the flavors to meld.
  8. Finish by sprinkling the chopped spring onions on top. Serve immediately while hot, and relish every bite!

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of water or soy sauce to restore some moisture.
