Yaki Udon is Japanese stir-fried udon noodles made with your choice of protein and vegetables seasoned with a savory sauce. INGREDIENTS 2 servings udon noodles (180 g dry udon noodles; 500 g frozen/boiled udon noodles), ½ onion, 2-3 leaves cabbage, 1 carrot, 2 shiitake mushrooms, 2 green onions/scallions, ½ lb sliced pork belly (or your choice of meat, seafood, or extra vegetables/mushrooms), 1 Tbsp neutral-flavored oil (vegetable, rice bran, canola, etc), Seasonings freshly ground black pepper, 3 Tbsp mentsuyu/tsuyu (noodle soup base) (Mentsuyu I use is 3-times concentrated. If you use non-concentrated Mentsuyu, you might need to add more to achieve the same flavor. You could skip Mentsuyu and increase the soy sauce to a total of 2-3 Tbsp (gradually increase, please), but the final dish will taste slightly different. Here's my homemade mentsuyu recipe). 1 tsp soy sauce. Toppings 3 Tbsp katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes) (or 1 small package of katsuobushi), 1 Tbsp pickled red ginger (beni shoga or kizami beni shoga) (optional).
