Chili Garlic Noodles offer a lively and spicy flavor that’s perfect for quick dinners. These noodles feature a rich chili sauce with aromatic garlic that creates a balanced heat and tang in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 200 grams noodles
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1⁄4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon green onions chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Heat a large pot of water until boiling and cook the noodles until they are just tender, then drain and keep aside.
  2. Combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili paste, sugar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl and set the mixture aside.
  3. Warm vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat and add minced garlic and ginger, cooking until their aroma is released, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  4. Pour the mixed sauce into the skillet and stir thoroughly to blend it with the garlic and ginger.
  5. Add water and let the sauce cook gently for 2 to 3 minutes until it thickens a bit.
  6. Incorporate the cooked noodles into the skillet and toss them so they’re evenly coated with the sauce.
  7. After the noodles are heated through, take the skillet off the heat.
  8. Serve the noodles on a plate and finish by sprinkling chopped green onions and sesame seeds on top.

Notes

  • Use whole wheat or rice noodles for a healthier alternative
  • Adjust the chili paste and red pepper flakes to control spice levels
  • For extra crunch, add chopped peanuts or cashews as a topping
  • Try adding sautéed vegetables like bell peppers or bok choy for added flavor
  • Serve with a side of pickled vegetables to balance the heat
