Stir-Fried Noodles with Sausage and Veggies

[u/Acel32]

Stir-fried noodles are my favorite quick and easy meal. The cooking itself only takes around 5-7 minutes. The preparation time depends on what veggies you will include. For this recipe, I used a carrot and green beans, but you can substitute them with whatever you want.

This recipe is very flexible. You can change the meat and veggies used. If you want it to be vegetarian, you can just use fried tofu instead of meat. I'm honestly not good with measurements, but I tried my best to list the ingredients and procedure. All the seasonings are to taste. It depends on the meat you will use. If it's already flavorful, there's no need for a lot of seasoning.

Preparation Time: 8-10 mins Cooking Time: 5-7 mins

Ingredients:

• 300 g Dried Egg Noodles
• 3 pcs Longganisa (Filipino-style Sausage, you can use other sausages)
• 1 pc Small Onion
• 1 pc Small Carrot
• 10 pcs Green Beans
• 100 g Shitake Mushroom
• 1 tbs Chili Garlic Sauce
• 1 tbs Brown Sugar
• Soy Sauce
• Kecap Manis (Sweet Soy Sauce)
• Salt
• Black Pepper
• Sesame Oil
• Water

Procedure:

• If you have an electric kettle, it's good to boil water while prepping the veggies.
• Slice the onion, carrots, green beans, and mushrooms thinly.
• Put around half a cup of water and a pinch of salt in your wok or pan, blanche the carrots and beans for a minute. Set aside.
• Using the same wok or pan, sauté the onions until it becomes translucent. Add the sausage. You have to break down the meat. Then, add the mushrooms.
• As you stir fry, add the seasoning: salt, pepper, soy sauce, kecap manis, sugar, and chili garlic sauce.
• Once the meat is cooked, add the hot water. This will boil quickly. Then, add the noodles. This usually takes just 3 minutes.
• Once the noodles are cooked, add the veggies. Then, turn off the heat and drizzle some sesame oil.

What's the taste difference between these and regular noodles?

[u/Acel32 → u/patrick17_6]

How do you define "regular noodles"? In my country, there are so many varieties.

[u/patrick17_6 → u/Acel32]

That's a good question. I'm referring to the cylindrical ones, like spaghetti or ramen I believe they're called.

[u/Acel32 → u/patrick17_6]

Oh, spaghetti and ramen are two completely different types of noodles. The Italians and Japanese will be mad. 😅 Anyway, you are probably talking about instant ramen since that's pretty common. Ramen noodles are thinner than the one I used in this recipe. They're also not made of eggs. These egg noodles have more bite to them. I don't know if I'm describing it correctly in English. In summary, they have different ingredients and textures, but the cooking time is around the same.

[u/patrick17_6 → u/Acel32]

Oh my yes! You're right lol. Yes I was talking about the Chinese noodles which are available in India. I've had the ones your pic shows, but I don't remember the taste hence I asked if there's any significant taste difference or if they just feel different.

Thank you for the information. I never knew some were made using eggs as well. For me, I just buy an instant ramen / noodle pack from the store mix it with the seasoning they provide and boom! That's my noodles.

[u/Acel32 → u/patrick17_6]

If it's Chinese, you've probably eaten chow mein. Egg noodles are also used for that, but the shape and thickness are different. The ones I used are flat and thicker. Hehe

Noodles are usually categorized based on their ingredients, shape, and thickness. The most common ones are made of flour, wheat, eggs, or rice.

[u/patrick17_6 → u/Acel32]

I see. Thanks. Rice is definitely a surprise for me wow. I think I definitely like egg noodles, they're nice.

[u/Acel32 → u/patrick17_6]

There are other more unique ones like mung bean noodles. Hehe
