Fried Udon

I'll be sharing a very simple Fried Udon recipe today.
I remember making this one night after a long day of classes. Took me less than 15 minutes.
It kinda looks like mamak mee goreng because of the noodles but I like this udon better than the yellow mee that is usually used for fried noodles.

Chanced upon this packet of Instant Japanese Fresh Udon once while grocery shopping & it didn't disappoint!

This recipe is for 1.


Here are the things you will need:

1. Instant Japanese Fresh Udon - 1 pack
#Tip: This is the one that I've used so far. I'm sure there are many variations of fresh-packed udon in the supermarket so you can take your pick.

2. Sawi (Mustard greens) - as much as you like

3. Fish balls - 1 small packet

4. Dried chili paste - 2 to 3 tbsp (or however much you like)

5. Oyster sauce - 1 tbsp

6. Light soy sauce - 1 tsp

7. Minced garlic - 3 to 4 pips

8. 1 small onion - chopped

9. Water - 3 tbsp

10. Oil (I usually use olive oil) - 2 to 3 tbsp

#Tip: You can add different types of meat and/or other greens as well


Here's how you make it:

1. Heat up the oil in a pan.

2. Add the minced garlic and chopped onions. Fry until the onions are translucent. Add in the fish balls.

3. Add in the udon & sawi, mix well.

4. Add in the soy sauce, oyster sauce & dried chili paste. You can add in the water little by little.

5. Cook until sawi is soft.

6. Remove from pan & serve hot.




And that's it!

If you're wondering about the price of that udon packet, I think it was around RM2+ when I bought it from TF Mart. Sometimes when I add a lot of extra ingredients, that 1 packet can actually serve 2  because it comes up to quite a bit. It's all about the extra ingredients, really.
