Best Stir Fried Ginger Noodles Recipes
STIR-FRIED NOODLES WITH PORK, CABBAGE, AND GINGER (YAKISOBA)
The most popular person at any Japanese street festival is the yakisoba guy. Standing at a small cart with a hot griddle, he wears a twisted hair band and holds two giant spatulas, one in each hand. With great energy and fanfare he stir-fries a heap of vegetables and pork with chukasoba noodles-the yellow, springy Chinese-style wheat noodles more commonly known as ramen. He finishes with a glug of the special bottled sauce that tastes like a spicier version of tonkatsu sauce, and customers walk toward him like zombies. At home, however, the dish is best cooked one portion at a time.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a medium-wide nonstick or cast-iron skillet over high heat until the oil shimmers. Add the pork belly, onion, and carrot and cook, stirring frequently, for about 30 seconds. Add the cabbage and cook, stirring, until it wilts slightly and the onion is lightly browned at the edges, about 3 minutes.
- Add the noodles and cook, tossing with tongs, until the noodles are heated through, about 3 minutes. As you toss, gently separate the strands. (If the noodles don't separate easily, add a splash of water to the pan.) Add the sauce and continue to cook, tossing, until thoroughly coated, about 1 minute. Season with more sauce to taste, toss well, and transfer to a bowl. Top with the beni shoga, bonito flakes, and aonori. Eat right away.

Steps:
- Bring a large heavy-based saucepan of salted water to a boil and blanch the noodles for about 2 minutes. Refresh under cold water.
- Peel and finely chop the ginger and garlic. Cut the chile in half lengthwise, deseed, and finely chop. Shred the spring onions and pick the leaves from the cilantro. Wipe and slice the shiitake mushrooms.
- Heat the sunflower oil in a large heavy-based wok. When hot, fry the garlic, ginger, chile, and mushrooms until brown, about 3 minutes. Add the noodles and spring onion; stir to combine, about 3 minutes.
- To serve, arrange the noodles in a serving dish and garnish with cilantro leaves.
