Garlic & Scallion Noodles

Ingredients

  • 1 packet of noodles
  • 4 tablespoons cooking oil
  • 3/4-1 cup scallions or spring onions, diagonally-sliced into 1-inch long sections
  • 5-6 garlic cloves, finely sliced
  • 2-3 teaspoons gochugaru or regular chili flakes
  • 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 1 1/2-2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1-2 teaspoons brown sugar (optional)

Cooking Instructions

Step 1: Cook noodles of choice according to package instructions.  Drain & set aside.

Step 2: Pour 3-4 tablespoons of oil in a wok or large pan.

Step 3: Once oil is warm, add the finely sliced garlic cloves and sliced scallions.  Cook, stirring continuously for a few minutes, until evenly browned and caramelized.  Remove & set aside.

Step 4: Lower the heat and add light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, rice vinegar, gochugaru, and brown sugar.  Feel free to adjust these amounts to your preference.

Step 5: Let the sauce sizzle with fine bubbles.  If it bubbles too much, lower the heat.  Stir the sauce and let it simmer for a minute or so until it thickens slightly.

Step 6: Toss in the noodles, stirring well to combine.  Serve hot, heaping the caramelized scallions on top with a scattering of the crunchy garlic chips.  Mix & serve.
