Difficulty: Medium
Ingredients
- •1 pound Shanghai noodles (the thick ones)
- •3 tablespoons sesame oil
- •10 shiitake mushrooms, sliced
- •6 ounces baby bok choy , trimmed and quartered
- •2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- •1 tablespoon coconut aminos
Instructions
- 1In a medium saucepan , bring about 2 quarts water to a rapid boil . Add noodles and cook for about 3 minutes. Check the noodles. You want the outside of the noodles to be soft but still a bit firm on the inside.
- 2Remove the noodles from the heat, drain, and rinse under cold running water. Stir a few drops of oil into the noodles to prevent them from sticking together.
- 3Heat up sesame oil in a large nonstick pan, a wok , or a cast iron skillet over high heat. Add mushrooms and bok choy. Sauté until the bok choy starts to wilt, about 2 minutes.
- 4Switch to medium heat. Add cooked noodles to the pan, followed by dark soy sauce and coconut aminos. Stir fry everything together until the noodles get an even brown color.
- 5Serve immediately!
