Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams dried Asian noodles (e.g., lo mein, ramen, or rice noodles)
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 100 grams snap peas, trimmed
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the dried Asian noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sesame oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the hot pan. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the julienned carrot, red bell pepper, and snap peas. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and lime juice.
Add the cooked noodles to the pan with the vegetables. Pour the sauce over the noodles and toss everything together to coat evenly.
Cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are heated through.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
