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.

Categories     HarperCollins     Noodle     Pork     Cabbage     Ginger     Dinner

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.

OKINAWA STIR-FRIED SOBA NOODLES (YAKISOBA)



Okinawa Stir-Fried Soba Noodles (Yakisoba) image

This is a recipe for yakisoba or stir-fried Okinawa soba with bitter melon. What's good about this dish is that you can add any vegetables you have in the fridge. It's easy to make. I've made use of ground meat for this recipe but you can also use other slices of pork.

Provided by Pearl Ishizaki

Categories     Pork

Time 35m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/3 piece bitter melon
1 teaspoon salt
100 g cabbage
1/2 piece onion
1/3 piece carrot
2 pieces dried shiitake mushrooms, hydrated
100 g bean sprouts
50 g garlic chives
100 g deep-fried tofu (atsuage)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
100 g miso pork
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons awamori
200 g okinawa soba noodles (wheat noodles)
5 g red pickled ginger (beni shoga)
10 g chopped green onions
chili oil (layu) (optional)

Steps:

  • Start by preparing the vegetables. Cut the bitter melon along its length then take the seeds then slice it thinly. Afterwards, soak it in water with a teaspoon of salt for about 30 minutes then drain before using. Soaking it in water with salt will lessen the bitter melon's bitterness.
  • Cut the cabbage into large bite-sized pieces. Slice the onion thinly. For the carrot, slice it into flat thin strips.
  • Soak the dried shiitake in water for about 20 minutes before using. Squeeze out the water then remove the hard stem part. Slice the head part into thin strips. You can also use fresh shiitake for this recipe.
  • Cut the garlic chives into about 5-centimeter pieces then chop the green onions. Slice the tofu into small bite-sized pieces.
  • Heat a pan using medium heat then add the vegetable oil. Stir fry the miso pork quickly as it is already cooked. You can also use normal pork for this recipe but you need to cook it thoroughly before adding other ingredients.
  • Add the cabbage then stir-fry until it becomes soft.
  • Next, add the bitter melon, onion, carrot and shiitake then stir-fry until the bitter melon is cooked.
  • Add 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper and 2 tablespoons of awamori then mix well. You can add more salt to adjust taste to your preference.
  • Add the bean sprouts, atsuage, and garlic chives then stir fry for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the cooked soba noodles then mix well until all ingredients are well-combined.
  • Place the yakisoba on a serving plate then garnish it with chopped green onions and red pickled ginger. You can drizzle a little bit of layu or chili oil if you prefer.

Tips for Making the Best Yakisoba

  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better your yakisoba will taste. This is especially true for the vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the noodles. Yakisoba noodles should be cooked until they are just tender, but still have a slight chew to them. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or frying pan. A well-seasoned wok or frying pan will help to prevent the noodles from sticking. If you don't have a well-seasoned wok or frying pan, you can grease it with a little oil before cooking.
  • Add the sauce gradually. Add the sauce to the noodles a little at a time, stirring constantly. This will help to prevent the sauce from becoming too thick or salty.
  • Serve immediately. Yakisoba is best served immediately after it is cooked. The noodles will start to lose their flavor and texture if they are allowed to sit for too long.

Conclusion

Yakisoba is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables and meat, and it can be easily customized to suit your own taste. With a little practice, you can make yakisoba that is just as good as, if not better than, what you would get at a restaurant.
