Ingredients

Noodles

  • 11 oz dried ribbon noodles (300g)

Sauce

  • 1½ tbsp cooking oil (e.g., grapeseed oil)
  • ½ cup scallions (white part), thinly sliced
  • 1½ tbsp minced garlic (4 cloves)
  • ¼ cup vegetable broth (low-sodium)
  • 2 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp dark soy sauce

Garnish

  • ¼ cup scallions (green part), thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • Extra chilli flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sauce: Heat a small frying pan over very low heat. Add cooking oil, scallions (white part), and minced garlic. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
  2. Simmer the sauce: Add vegetable broth, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, black vinegar, and Korean chilli powder/flakes. Increase heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Cook noodles: Boil a pot of water and cook the dried ribbon noodles according to package instructions until tender. Drain thoroughly.
  4. Combine noodles and sauce: Toss the drained noodles with the prepared garlic chilli sauce, ensuring even coating.
  5. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle scallions (green part), toasted sesame seeds, and extra chilli flakes if desired over the noodles. Serve hot and enjoy your aromatic garlic chilli noodles.

Notes

  • Use grapeseed oil or any neutral oil suitable for sautéing garlic without burning.
  • Adjust the amount of Korean chilli powder to control the spice level.
  • For gluten-free option, substitute soy sauce with tamari or coconut aminos.
  • To add protein, consider adding tofu or cooked chicken on the side.
  • Ensure constant stirring during sauté to prevent garlic from burning and becoming bitter.
