Ingredients

• 400 grams shirataki noodles
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 medium carrot, julienned
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 stalks green onions, sliced
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1

Drain the shirataki noodles and rinse them thoroughly under warm water for about 2 minutes. This helps remove the natural odor. Set them aside to drain completely.

Step 2

Heat a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and julienned carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5 to 7 minutes until they are tender-crisp.

Step 5

Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the shirataki noodles to the cleared space and stir-fry them for about 2 minutes.

Step 6

Mix the noodles with the vegetables and pour the soy sauce and sesame oil over the top. Combine everything well, cooking for an additional 2 minutes so the flavors meld together.

Step 7

Add the sliced green onions and sesame seeds to the stir-fry. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes for a bit of heat, if desired.

Step 8

Serve the noodle stir-fry hot, garnished with additional sesame seeds and green onions if preferred.
