Description

Ingredients

• 1 lb (484 grams) fresh Shanghai-style noodles (can substitute with Udon or cooked fettuccine noodles)
• 1/2 – 1 pound lean ground pork
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• SAUCE
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 1/2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
• 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1/2 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 3 teaspoons dark soy sauce*
• 2 teaspoons Chinese cooking wine or dry sherry
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• ¼ teaspoon Sriracha sauce or red pepper flakes, to taste (optional)
• 1 ½ tablespoons grated fresh ginger
• 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
• TOPPINGS
• 2/3 cups thinly shredded Napa cabbage
• 1 green onion, thinly sliced
• Sesame seeds, for garnish

Directions

• In a medium bowl, marinate ground pork with salt and pepper. In another small bowl, whisk together all ingredients for the sauce and set aside.
• Heat cooking oil in a wok or heavy skillet on medium high heat. Sauté half of the garlic and ginger for one minute, or until fragrant. Crumble ground pork, breaking up large lumps, and cook until meat is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Mix in cabbage and stir-fry until tender. Add in noodles, breaking up strands if necessary and pour sauce on top. Toss to combine to coat with sauce. Adjust seasonings as needed and add Sriracha or red pepper chili flakes, for some heat, if desired.
• Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds, if desired.
