  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1/2 - 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1/2- 1 tsp black sesame seeds
  • 1 cup broccoli, chopped
  • 1 cup bell pepper, chopped I used a orange pepper
  • 1 carrot, peeled, and cut into thin strips
  • 3 green onions, chopped thinly
  • 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 2 packs yakisoba noodles

Sesame sauce

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp. rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp. corn starch
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp. dark soy sauce light soy can be used
  • 1 tbsp. sesame oil
  • 1/4 tsp. sriracha sauce, chili garlic sauce, or gohcujang sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp. sesame seeds

Instructions

Sesame Sauce

  • Combine all the ingredients in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and then lower the heat and simmer until sauce has thickened and coats the back of a spoon.
    *Note you can store any leftover sauce in the fridge for up to a week.

Stirfry

  • In a wok or large pan, heat on med-high. Add the oil. Let it get hot then add the broccoli, carrots, and bell pepper. Sprinkle with some black pepper.
  • Cook, stirring often until the vegetables start to get a slight char going.
  • Push the vegetables to the side, pierce the package and warm the noodle packs in the microwave for 1 minute or run under water. Add to the wok and stir. Cook for 1 minute. Just enough time to get the noodles some warmth.
  • Now goes the vegetable broth, sesame sauce, soy, and red pepper flakes.
  • Stir well. Get everything incorporated. Stir-fry for a couple minutes or until the liquid is gone but still keeping the noodles juicy.
  • Turn off the heat, add the green onions and toss. Now goes the sesame seeds.
    I love a good drizzle of scriacha sauce.
  • ENJOY!
