    Spicy Yaki Udon

    September 21, 2022 by Marc Matsumoto Leave a Comment

    Spicy Yaki Udon ready to serve

    This easy noodle stir-fry is like a mashup of Mongolian Beef and Yaki Udon. With loads of veggies and thick, chewy udon noodles stir-fried with a savory, sweet, and spicy sauce, it's an easy one-pan meal that makes for a tasty lunch or quick weeknight dinner.

    The primary time saver here is having some frozen pre-boiled udon noodles in the freezer. I know it may sound crazy, but these noodles usually have a better taste and texture than uncooked dried, or pre-cooked refrigerated udon, and they rival fresh handmade udon. Since they're cooked before being flash-frozen, all you need to do is defrost and heat them up in order to enjoy them.

    Of course, you can make this with other types of udon, but you'll need to cook them according to the package/recipe directions before adding them to the stir-fry.

    I started No Recipes back in 2007 as a place to share original dishes I'd created with friends. It's since evolved into something much bigger than I could have imagined, but as it grew, the focus shifted from inventing dishes to improving classics. In the spirit of how No Recipes began, I'm bringing back my weekly original recipes for all of my supporters and friends!
