# Étapes de réalisation:
01 -
Combine the sauce ingredients in a bowl. Taste it to see if it needs adjustments, then set it off to the side.
02 -
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook noodles until barely tender (about 2 to 3 minutes less than what the packet says). Drain and run under cold water, if you prefer.
03 -
On medium-high heat, drizzle some oil into a pan. Toss in sliced tofu, mushrooms, or veggies and stir-fry them how you like.
04 -
Give your sauce mix a quick stir, then pour it into the pan. On medium heat, let it simmer for a couple of minutes. Keep stirring until it thickens up.
05 -
Drop the noodles into the pan and toss them in the sauce until they're fully coated. Let everything cook for about 3 minutes on medium-high, so the sauce thickens and clings to the noodles.
06 -
Taste to see if you need to tweak the spices. Sprinkle on sesame seeds and green onions and serve right away.
# Détails supplémentaires:
01 -
Make double sauce if you're adding more veggies.
02 -
If you're using broth, start with less soy sauce and add more as needed.

Start with 2 tbsp of cornstarch before adding more to adjust thickness.
