Tim's Notes

This is a quick, easy, and delicious favorite. Vegan, too. With my Asian chili flakes, a full tablespoon blows your head off. I use one teaspoon and it's still almost too hot. This will vary depending on the chili flakes used. I didn't have Asian noodles, so I used egg noodles and they were just fine.

Ingredients

• 4 oz thick wheat noodles
• 3 tbsp vegetable oil or any neutral oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp Sichuan chili flakes or regular chili flakes to taste
• 1 tbsp green onion chopped
• 2 tsp light soy sauce
• 1 tsp dark soy sauce
• 1/2 tsp Chinese black vinegar
• 1/2 tsp salt or chicken stock
• cilantro, green onion, and toasted sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

1. Cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain and place in a bowl. To serve the noodles cold, rinse under cold water for a few seconds then drain.
2. Add garlic, chili flakes, green onion, light and dark soy sauce, chinese black vinegar, and salt over the noodles.
3. Heat oil in a small pot until smoking hot. Pour the hot oil over the garlic and chili flakes. Mix to combine, adding more soy sauce if needed. Garnish.
