Ingredients

• 200 grams Glass noodles (mung bean or sweet potato starch noodles)
• 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
• 1 medium Carrot, julienned
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 medium Zucchini, julienned
• 4 stalks Green onion, chopped
• 150 grams Mushrooms, sliced
• 4 tablespoons Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional, for heat)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil (for stir-frying)

Directions

Step 1

Soak the glass noodles in warm water for 10-12 minutes, or according to the package instructions, until softened. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the tamari, rice vinegar, coconut sugar, and red chili flakes (if using). Set the sauce aside.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the carrot, red bell pepper, zucchini, and mushrooms to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.

Step 5

Push the vegetables to one side of the pan, and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the soaked glass noodles to the pan and stir to combine.

Step 6

Pour the prepared sauce over the noodles and vegetables. Toss everything together to ensure the noodles are evenly coated in the sauce.

Step 7

Cook for another 2-3 minutes while stirring frequently, until the noodles are heated through and have absorbed the sauce.

Step 8

Remove from heat and stir in the chopped green onions and sesame seeds.

Step 9

Drizzle with sesame oil for an extra layer of flavor, then serve hot.
