Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Yakisoba noodles (pre-cooked or steamed)
- 1 medium, julienned Carrot
- 2 cups, chopped Green cabbage
- 1 medium, sliced Red bell pepper
- 1 cup, sliced Mushrooms (shiitake or button)
- 3 stalks, chopped Green onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce (reduced sodium)
- 2 tbsp Vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp Oyster sauce (vegetarian or mushroom-based)
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 tsp Sugar
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare all vegetables: julienne the carrot, chop the cabbage, slice the red bell pepper and mushrooms, and chop the green onions.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, vegetarian oyster sauce, sesame oil, and sugar. Set the sauce aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the carrots, cabbage, bell peppers, and mushrooms to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the pre-cooked yakisoba noodles. If the noodles are clumped together, you can run them under warm water and gently separate them before adding to the pan.
Pour the prepared sauce over the noodles and vegetables. Toss everything together with tongs or chopsticks to coat evenly and heat through.
Cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the noodles are slightly caramelized and well mixed with the vegetables and sauce.
Remove from heat and transfer to serving plates. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy your Vegetarian Yakisoba!
