Ingredients
- 200 g potato starch noodles
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon chili oil
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the potato starch noodles according to package instructions until tender and chewy.
- Drain the noodles and rinse briefly under cold water, then set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, chili oil, chili flakes, rice vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil to prepare the spicy sauce.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and pour in the prepared sauce. Toss well to coat the noodles evenly.
- Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until the noodles are heated through and glossy with sauce.
- Remove from heat and fold in the sliced green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and chopped cilantro.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt if needed, then serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Adjust chili flakes or chili oil to control the level of heat.
- Add sautéed vegetables such as bell peppers, mushrooms, or bok choy for extra texture and nutrition.
- Top with crushed peanuts or extra sesame seeds for additional crunch.
- Best served immediately, but leftovers can be reheated in a skillet with a splash of water.
