INGREDIENTS
Udon Noodles – This is one of the most popular noodles in Asian cooking. You can buy this from most Asian grocery stores. Your local stores will likely have this as well.
Smoked Salmon – I use Smoked Salmon with Black Pepper. It has an amazing flavor. You can easily find this in your local supermarkets.
Vegetable Oil – I normally use Rapeseed Oil. You can also try Sunflower Oil. Do not use Olive Oil.
Eggs – I use two eggs in this recipe. Eggs just make the dish richer and more satisfying.
Lettuce – I like adding lettuce to my stir-fry noodles. You can also add Bok Choy or other green leaves vegetables.
Sesame Oil – It adds a unique flavor to the noodles and it helps keep the noodles in good texture.
Light Soy Sauce – This is one of the must-have Asian sauces that you need to have in your kitchen. Lee Kum Kee is my favorite brand for this. You can use other brands too.
Oyster Sauce – You should definitely add this to your kitchen. Oyster Sauce adds a great hint of sweetness and a rich savoriness to the dish. I like to use Thai brand, such as Maekrua for this sauce.
Chili Flakes – This adds a bit extra spicy tang. If you want to tune down the spiciness, you can skip this.
Black Pepper – It adds a bit of peppery flavor, which makes the noodles even more flavorful.
Green Onions – or called Spring Onions. I like to use this for garnishing at the end. It adds beautiful green color and it is rich in healthy nutrients.
