Instructions

  1. Step 1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 8 oz dried egg noodles and cook for 4-5 minutes until just tender but still firm, then drain and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
  3. Step 3: Add 3 thinly sliced scallions to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes until softened and aromatic.
  4. Step 4: Toss the drained noodles into the skillet with 2 tbsp soy sauce, stirring to coat evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the noodles are heated through and the sauce coats them well.
  5. Step 5: Remove from heat and sprinkle 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds on top before serving.
