Asian Garlic Noodles (Quick & Easy) image

Super easy and garlicky noodles that I love making with wonton noodles. Of course any kind of pasta would work with this too. An excellent dish to eat on its own, but great when paired with simple seafoods too.

3 1/3 tbsp oyster sauce
3 1/3 tsp light soy sauce

Categories     Noodles

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 ounces thin spaghetti ((340g; can also use dried Chinese noodles or fresh egg noodles))
salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
8 cloves garlic ((peeled and thinly sliced))
1/8 teaspoon turmeric ((optional))
1 tablespoon oyster sauce ((or vegetarian oyster sauce))
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1-2 teaspoons brown sugar ((depending on your taste))
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1-2 whole scallions ((chopped))
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the noodles/pasta according to package instructions. If using fresh noodles, you may simply need to blanch them. (Reserve some of the pasta cooking water, as you may need it in the sauce later.)
  • Meanwhile, heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat and add the garlic. Cook for 5 minutes, until lightly caramelized, and stir in the turmeric (if using), oyster sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Stir for 1 minute and add the scallions.
  • After 30 seconds, to let the scallions wilt, toss in the cooked pasta and parmesan cheese. If the sauce is too thick, add a few tablespoons of the noodle cooking water to loosen them up. Serve!

GARLIC NOODLES



Garlic Noodles image

These deceivingly simple, yet devastatingly delicious garlic noodles were invented back in the '70s at a restaurant in San Francisco called Thanh Long. Usually served with roasted Dungeness crab, the recipe is a very closely guarded family secret, but after lots of investigation, and even more experimentation, I think this is very close.

Time 35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons fish sauce
¼ teaspoon sesame oil
1 pinch cayenne pepper
8 cloves garlic, minced
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
1 tablespoon chopped green onion, or to taste
6 ounces spaghetti
1 pinch red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Stir soy sauce, oyster sauce, Worcestershire sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl for the secret sauce.
  • Place secret sauce near the stove. Place garlic, butter, Parmesan cheese, and green onion in individual bowls within easy reach.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic; cook and stir just until fragrant, about 1 minute. Quickly stir in the secret sauce and turn off the heat.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet slightly firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
  • Transfer spaghetti into the sauce using tongs, bringing some of the cooking water with it. Toss until well coated and stir in Parmesan cheese. Splash in more pasta water if noodles are too dry.
  • Plate noodles. Garnish with red pepper flakes and green onions.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish. Look for fresh garlic, ginger, and vegetables.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the recipe to your taste: If you like things spicier, add more chili peppers. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of garlic or ginger.
  • Be careful not to overcook the noodles: They should be cooked al dente, with a slight bite to them.
  • Garnish your dish with fresh herbs and vegetables: This will add a pop of color and flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Asian garlic noodles are best enjoyed when they are fresh and hot.

Asian garlic noodles are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will love.
