Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pack (200g) udon noodles (preferably vacuum-packed)
  • 2 tbsp neutral oil
  • 810 shrimp (approx 100g)
  • 1 garlic (minced)
  • 1 yellow onion (sliced)
  • 8 white mushrooms (sliced, approx 120g)
  • 1 carrot (cut matchstick-style)
  • 1 spring onion (green & white separately chopped)
  • 1 tbsp regular soy sauce
  • Pinch salt and pepper
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp dark soy sauce (NOT regular one)
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 1/3 tsp freshly crushed black pepper
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • Pinch salt

Instructions

  1. Boil the udon noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cold water. Drizzle a little oil over them and set aside.
  2. In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil and toast the minced garlic for about a minute. Add the mushrooms and stir on high heat until cooked.
  3. Add onions, the white part of spring onions, and carrots. Cook for 2–3 minutes, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
  4. Using the same pan, add another 2 tablespoons of oil and fry the shrimp. Pour in soy sauce and a pinch of salt, cooking until shrimp turn pink.
  5. Add the udon noodles to the pan and fry on high heat, stirring continuously until slightly crisp.
  6. Pour in the sauce ingredients, toss well, and return the veggies to the pan. Mix thoroughly, turn off heat, and garnish with green spring onions before serving.

Notes

Serve warm and garnish with sesame seeds or extra spring onions. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2–3 days. Reheat with a splash of soy sauce or sesame oil to refresh flavor. Add chili flakes or sriracha for a spicy twist.
