Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams shirataki noodles
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon chili oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Rinse the shirataki noodles under cold water for 2-3 minutes to remove any odor. Drain well.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add the sesame oil. Once hot, add the minced ginger and garlic, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the rinsed and drained shirataki noodles to the skillet. Stir fry for about 2-3 minutes to heat them through and evaporate any excess water.
Reduce the heat to low and add the low sodium soy sauce and chili oil to the noodles. Toss well to coat the noodles evenly.
Add half of the sliced green onions to the skillet and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Transfer the noodles to serving bowls and garnish with the remaining green onions, sesame seeds, and freshly chopped cilantro.
Serve immediately, adjusting the level of chili oil based on desired spiciness.
