Ingredients You'll Need

Here's what you'll need – nothing too fancy, just good ingredients that work together beautifully.

  • 12 oz Egg Noodles (fresh or dried)
  • 8 oz Golden Enoki Mushrooms
  • 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 3 tablespoons Soy Sauce (low sodium)
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Rice Vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Brown Sugar (packed)
  • 1-2 teaspoons Chili Garlic Sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 2 Green Onions (sliced, for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Seeds (toasted, for garnish)
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 1 cup Broccoli Florets
  • 1/2 cup Sliced Carrots

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the sauce by whisking together soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and chili garlic sauce in a small bowl. The sauce should be well combined, ensuring the sugar is fully dissolved to create a smooth and flavorful base.

    ~2 min

    Tip: Taste and adjust the chili garlic sauce according to your spice preference.
  2. 2

    Cook the egg noodles according to package directions. Be careful not to overcook them, as they should be slightly al dente to maintain a pleasant chewiness. Once cooked, drain the noodles well and set aside to prevent them from sticking together.

    ~5 min

    Tip: Rinsing the noodles briefly in cold water after cooking can help stop the cooking process and prevent stickiness.
  3. 3

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. The pan should be hot enough to quickly sear the vegetables without making them soggy.

    ~1 min

    Tip: Using a wok provides more surface area for even cooking.
  4. 4

    Add the minced garlic to the hot oil and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic, as it can become bitter. The aroma of the garlic should fill the kitchen.

    ~1 min

    Tip: Keep the garlic moving to prevent burning.
  5. 5

    Add the broccoli florets and sliced carrots to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until they are crisp-tender. Stir frequently to ensure even cooking. You want them to retain some bite while still being slightly softened.

    ~4 min

    Tip: Add a splash of water to the pan and cover it briefly to steam the vegetables if they are taking too long to cook.
  6. 6

    Add the golden enoki mushrooms to the skillet and stir-fry for about 1 minute, until they are slightly softened. Enoki mushrooms cook very quickly, so be careful not to overcook them.

    ~1 min

    Tip: Gently separate the enoki mushrooms before adding them to the pan for even cooking.
  7. 7

    Pour the prepared sauce over the vegetables and stir-fry for about 1 minute, until the sauce is heated through and coats the vegetables evenly. The sauce will thicken slightly as it heats.

    ~1 min

    Tip: Make sure the sauce is evenly distributed to ensure every vegetable is coated.
  8. 8

    Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until the noodles are well coated with the sauce and vegetables. Ensure the noodles are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

    ~1 min

    Tip: Use tongs to toss the noodles and vegetables for even distribution.
  9. 9

    Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the noodle mixture to serving bowls. The noodles should be steaming hot and fragrant.

    0
    Tip: Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
  10. 10

    Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds. These add a pop of freshness and a nutty flavor to the dish.

    0
    Tip: Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for a few minutes until golden brown and fragrant.

How Do I Know It's Ready?

The noodles are done when they are tender but still have a slight chew. The vegetables should be crisp-tender, not mushy.
