- Soy Sauce: 3 tablespoons
- Sesame Oil: 2 teaspoons
- Garlic: 3 cloves, finely chopped
- Brown Sugar: 1 tablespoon
- Green Onions: 2-3 stalks, sliced (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the Noodles:
Boil a pot of water and cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside. - Prepare the Soy Sauce Mixture:
In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, and finely chopped garlic. Stir until the sugar dissolves. - Toss the Noodles with the Sauce:
Heat a large pan over medium heat. Add the cooked noodles and pour over the soy sauce mixture. Toss the noodles around for a couple of minutes until evenly coated and heated through. - Add the Final Touches:
Stir in the green onions for a burst of freshness, and your noodles are ready!
Notes
- Noodle Type: Any type of noodle will work (egg noodles, spaghetti, rice noodles, ramen without the seasoning packet).
- For Extra Flavor: Add red pepper flakes or chili oil for a spicy kick.
- Don’t Overcook the Noodles: Cook them al dente since they’ll be reheated in the sauce.
