INGREDIENTS

  • STIR-FRY
    • 100g udon noodles
    • 1 onion, sliced
    • 3 stalks spring onion, sliced
    • 1 red capsicum, sliced
    • 300g mushrooms, sliced (I used combo of white button & shiitake)
    • 1 tablespoon oil
  • TERIYAKI SAUCE
    • 1/4 cup soy sauce (or tamari)
    • 2 teaspoons dark soy sauce
    • 1/4 cup water
    • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
    • 1/2 tablespoon rice wine vinegar (or white vinegar)
    • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
    • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
    • 1 tablespoon cornstarch + 1 tablespoons water (cornstarch slurry)

METHOD

  1. TERIYAKI SAUCE
    1. In a small saucepan on medium-high heat, combine the water, soy sauces, maple syrup, garlic & ginger. Bring to a boil, then add the cornstarch slurry & reduce heat down to a simmer. Cook, whisking as needed, until the teriyaki sauce is glossy & slightly thickened. Adjust seasoning to taste with soy sauce/water. Set aside.
  2. STIR-FRY
    1. Cook the udon according to packet instructions. Drain & set aside.
    2. Heat up the oil in a wok on high heat, stir-fry the onions & capsicum for 3 mins until slightly tender. Add in the mushrooms + half the Teriyaki sauce & cook for a further 3 mins.
    3. Add in your noodles and the rest of the Teriyaki sauce, toss until all the noodles are coated in sauce.
    4. Stir-fry for a further 5-6 minutes. Add a splash of water every now and then, if needed.
