Cook Time:10 min
Total Time:20 min
Ingredients
  1. 2 (5-7oz) packets of refrigerated Yokisoba Noodles
  2. 3-4 cloves of Garlic
  3. 1 1/2 tsp freshly grated Ginger
  4. 1/4 cup Soy Sauce
  5. 1 tbsp Brown Sugar
  6. 1 tsp White/Black Pepper powder
  7. 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  8. 1 tbsp Toasted Seasame Oil
  9. 1/2 large Onion
  10. 3 stalks of Celery
  11. 1 1/2 cups shredded Cabbage
  12. Salt to taste
Instructions
  1. Peel and grate 3-4 cloves of garlic and about 11/2 teaspoons of fresh ginger into a small bowl.
  2. Add the soy sauce, brown sugar and pepper to the bowl and stir it all together well. Set the sauce mixture aside.
  3. Slice the onion, celery stalks & set aside. Also shred roughly 1 1/2 cups of cabbage too.
  4. Discard the seasoning sauce packets from the Yakisoba noodle packs and add the noodles to a pot of boiling water to loosen them. You don’t want to cook the noodles (as they are pre-cooked), so just a minute or two, separating the strands with a fork or spaghetti spoon and then drain the noodles well.
  5. Heat the olive oil and toasted seasame oil together in a large wok or skillet.
  6. Add the onion and celery and toss or saute them on high heat for about 1-2 mins until slightly tender (you want them still crisp and not soggy)
  7. Immediately add the yakisoba noodles and sauce mixture, tossing and stirring until everything is well coated in the sauce (2-3 mins).
  8. Toss in the cabbage and turn the heat off, keeping the cabbage fresh and crispy. Give it a quick taste and add salt if necessary.
  9. That’s it folks! It’s as simple as that. Serve hot with your favorite stir-fry or Asian dish like Lemon Chicken or Chili Pork with Peppers. Yummm…..
