Do you know the yaki udon? These are Japanese stir fried noodles seasoned with a sauce based on soy sauce. I love this dish because it is, even though it doesn’t look like it, very simple to make, quick and healthy at the same time if you serve it with a lot of vegetables! Here is my recipe for Vegan Yaki Udon (Japanese Stir Fried Noodles).

Ingredients
  

For the Yaki Udon

  • 400 g of udon noodles
  • 250 g plant-based minced meat
  • 2 carrots cut into thin slices
  • 4 spring onions
  • 200 g shiitakee mushrooms
  • 200 g bean sprouts
  • 2 bok choy
  • Sesame seeds

For the sauce

  • 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce 30 ml
  • 2 tablespoons of soy sauce 30 ml
  • 2 tablespoons of mirin 30 ml
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce 15 ml (or a vegan alternative)
  • 1 tablespoon of sesame oil 15 ml

Instructions
 

  • Cook the udon noodles as directed on the package, then drain them and run them under cold water to stop cooking.
  • Mix all the ingredients for the sauce and set aside.
  • Coarsely chop the white part of the spring onions. Chop the green part finely and reserve for decoration. Cut the carrots into thin slices.
  • In a very hot pan, pour a drizzle of neutral oil. Add the meat and sauté for 2 minutes. Then add the carrots and sauté for 2 minutes.
  • Then add the shiitake mushrooms, the white part of the spring onions and the bok choy. Stir well to prevent the vegetables from sticking to the pan.
  • Then add the bean sprouts and sauté for 1 minute. To finish, add the udon noodles. Finish by pouring the sauce. Stir well and fry for another minute.
  • Serve the udon noodles with sesame seeds and green spring onions as decoration.
