- 300 grams dried wheat noodles (or your choice of noodles)
- 100 grams fresh garlic chives, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoons chili flakes (optional)
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 0.25 cup water (reserved from noodle cooking)
- 2 stalks scallions, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/4 cup of the cooking water, drain the noodles, and set them aside.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil.
Step 3
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Step 4
Add the chopped garlic chives to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chives are slightly softened.
Step 5
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and reserved noodle cooking water to create the sauce.
Step 6
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, then pour the sauce over the noodles. Toss everything together with tongs or a spatula, ensuring the noodles are evenly coated.
Step 7
If using chili flakes, sprinkle them in and toss again for a spicy kick.
Step 8
Cook for 2-3 more minutes, allowing the sauce to cling to the noodles and the flavors to meld.
Step 9
Remove the skillet from heat. Optionally, garnish with chopped scallions before serving.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy the rich flavors of these garlic chives noodles!
