Instructions

  1. Step 1: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 8 oz dried egg noodles and cook for 4-5 minutes until just tender but not mushy. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp sesame oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
  3. Step 3: Add 1 medium julienned carrot, 1 medium thinly sliced red bell pepper, and 1 cup snap peas to the wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
  4. Step 4: Return the drained noodles to the wok and pour in 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tsp brown sugar. Toss everything together continuously for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the noodles.
  5. Step 5: Remove from heat and stir in 2 sliced green onions and sprinkle 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds on top before serving.
