Ingredients
For the sauce:
- 6 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoons sriracha sauce, plus more to serve
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon water
For the stir-fry:
- 2 x 200 g packages fresh udon noodles
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large carrot, peeled, trimmed and cut into matchsticks
- 2 handfuls thinly shredded cabbage (85 g)
- 2 small zucchini, cut into thin strips (250 g)
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
- sesame seeds, as garnish
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together the sauce ingredients (hoisin, Sriracha, sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger, water) and whisk until well combined. Set aside.
- In a large pot of boiling water, blanch the udon noodles for 1 to 2 minutes (no need to break the noodles apart as they will separate as they blanch). Note: if using dry noodles cook according to package instructions, until al dente. Drain well and immediately rinse with cold water. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in the wok on medium-high to high heat. Add the carrot and cabbage, and stir-fry for 1 minute, then add the zucchini. Stir-fry for a minute or so, tossing constantly until all the vegetables are lightly seared and starting to soften.
- Add the udon noodles to the wok. Stir-fry for one minute, then pour over the sauce. Stir-fry for another minute, tossing constantly until everything is thoroughly coated in the sauce is heated through. Add half the green onion, stir to combine.
- Serve into bowl, topped with the remaining green onions a sprinkle of sesame seeds. If desired, add an extra drizzle of Sriracha chili sauce and enjoy!
