Ingredients

• 250 grams dried noodles (e.g., udon, rice noodles, or spaghetti)
• 300 grams broccoli florets
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon sriracha (or your favorite chili sauce)
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon honey or brown sugar
• 60 ml water
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 2 stalks scallions, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Steam or blanch the broccoli florets until tender but still bright green, about 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sriracha, rice vinegar, honey (or brown sugar), and water. In a separate small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 1 tablespoon of water.

Step 4

Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Stir in the dissolved cornstarch and cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens.

Step 6

Add the cooked noodles and broccoli to the skillet. Toss everything together to coat the noodles and broccoli evenly in the sauce.

Step 7

Serve the hot noodles in bowls, garnished with scallions and sesame seeds.
