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.

Emergency Brownies ala Nigella

Really felt like having brownies today & I remember for Nigella week on Masterchef Australia recently, in one of the elimination challenges, the contestants had to make Nigella's brownies & they looked absolutely divine . Did some googling & found the exact same recipe! The ones I made were delicious. Perfectly ooey gooey, chewy, moist & chocolatey. Heaven. Although, there are a few things I'd tweak in the recipe. Like the amount of salt. I also watched a video of Nigella on the Rachel Ray show where she made her brownies & she mentioned how she likes quite a bit of salt in what she makes. So if you're not really into that then you can always cut down on the amount. But this is by far the best brownie recipe I've ever followed. Won't be using anything else after this. Let's get started, shall we? Here are the things you will need: 1. 50g all purpose flour 2. 50g cocoa powder 3. 40g soft brown sugar 4. a pinch of salt* ...

Carrot & Potato Soup

I made this carrot & potato soup for lunch one weekend afternoon after days of eating out & it was delightfully easy to make. To be honest it was more of a puree because it was really thick & creamy but I didn't mind it. It goes really well with bread or baguette. This recipe is for 1 Here are the things you will need: 1. 1 large carrot - diced 2. 1 large/2 small potatoes - diced 3. 10 to 12 tbsp of milk #Tip: I always use full cream milk but any other milk is fine 4. 1 tsp of butter #Tip: Not a must but will enhance flavour. Avoid margarine like the plague. 5. Ground black pepper - 2 tsp (or however much you like) #Tip: Try to avoid flavoured pepper as it alters the taste of your dish quite a bit 6. Salt to taste Here's how you make it: 1. Fill up a pot with water, add in some salt & bring to a boil. Add the diced carrots & potatoes. Boil until soft. Strain. 2. Mash carrots & potatoes.
