Equipment

  • wok or large frying pan

Ingredients

Veggie stir fry

  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil or sesame oil for more flavor
  • 1 small onion
  • 2 medium carrots
  • 1 medium red bell pepper
  • 1 1/2 cup broccoli
  • 1 cup mushrooms sliced

Sauce

US - Metric

Instructions

  • Cook the glass noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside. (The cooking time will depend on the thickness of the noodles.)

Make the sauce

  • In a small bowl or measuring container, mix together the broth, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, garlic chili sauce, and garlic then set aside.

Make the veggie stir fry

  • Peel and dice an onion then sauté it over low heat in 3 tablespoons of oil for about 5 minutes.
  • Wash and cut vegetables into bite-size pieces then toss them into the wok with the softened onion and turn up the heat to medium-high.

Put everything together

  • Sauté the veggies for about 5 more minutes until tender, then add the drained noodles and the prepared sauce.
  • Stir well until the noodles are coated and the noodles and veggies are mixed well.
  • Serve hot or cold. Garnish with sesame seeds.

Notes

  • Don't overcook the vegetables, you want them to be tender, but not mushy.
  • If your noodles get sticky while cooking your veggies, you can rinse them under hot water and shake them around before adding them to the wok.
  • The sauce will be a little watery at first, but the noodles will soak up the extra liquid which will flavor them.
