STIR-FRIED NOODLES WITH PORK, CABBAGE, AND GINGER (YAKISOBA)



Stir-Fried Noodles With Pork, Cabbage, and Ginger (Yakisoba) image

The most popular person at any Japanese street festival is the yakisoba guy. Standing at a small cart with a hot griddle, he wears a twisted hair band and holds two giant spatulas, one in each hand. With great energy and fanfare he stir-fries a heap of vegetables and pork with chukasoba noodles-the yellow, springy Chinese-style wheat noodles more commonly known as ramen. He finishes with a glug of the special bottled sauce that tastes like a spicier version of tonkatsu sauce, and customers walk toward him like zombies. At home, however, the dish is best cooked one portion at a time.

Yield Serves 1

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 ounces pork belly, thinly sliced, then cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1/2 cup thinly sliced yellow onion
1/4 cup 2-inch-long matchsticks peeled carrot
1 cup roughly chopped (about 2 by 3/4-inch pieces) loosely packed white cabbage
1 (5 1/2-ounce) package yakisoba noodles (a heaping cup)
2 tablespoons jarred yakisoba sauce, preferably the Otafuku brand
1 tablespoon shredded beni shoga (red pickled ginger)
1 heaping tablespoon bonito flakes
1/2 teaspoon aonori (powdered seaweed) or finely chopped nori seaweed sheets

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium-wide nonstick or cast-iron skillet over high heat until the oil shimmers. Add the pork belly, onion, and carrot and cook, stirring frequently, for about 30 seconds. Add the cabbage and cook, stirring, until it wilts slightly and the onion is lightly browned at the edges, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the noodles and cook, tossing with tongs, until the noodles are heated through, about 3 minutes. As you toss, gently separate the strands. (If the noodles don't separate easily, add a splash of water to the pan.) Add the sauce and continue to cook, tossing, until thoroughly coated, about 1 minute. Season with more sauce to taste, toss well, and transfer to a bowl. Top with the beni shoga, bonito flakes, and aonori. Eat right away.

Tips:

  • Preparing the Noodles: For best results, use fresh noodles, as they absorb the sauce better and have a springy texture. If using dried noodles, be sure to cook them according to the package instructions before stir-frying.
  • Slicing the Pork: Thinly slicing the pork against the grain helps it cook faster and evenly, resulting in tender and juicy meat.
  • Choosing the Right Cabbage: Use fresh, crisp cabbage for the best flavor and texture. Napa cabbage (Chinese cabbage) or green cabbage are both excellent choices.
  • Stir-Frying Technique: To achieve the classic wok-charred flavor, use a large wok or skillet over high heat. Stir-fry the ingredients in batches to prevent overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
  • Seasoning: Use a combination of soy sauce, oyster sauce, and mirin to create a flavorful sauce for the noodles. Adjust the proportions to suit your taste preferences.
  • Garnishing: Garnish the stir-fried noodles with spring onions, red chili flakes, and sesame seeds for added color and flavor.
