Ingredients

2-3 servings

  • 2 cups stir fry veggies (I use about half of a bag of a frozen stir fry veggie blend)

  • 1–2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • A ton of freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Chef’s notes

If you have extra udon noodles and/or want to make this more than once, double or triple your sauce for later! It makes this the fastest meal of all time.
There is sugar in the sauce which can burn so don’t leave your noodles sitting undisturbed in the hot pan for too long or your caramelization will turn to burning.
If you’re using dry udon noodles, cook them for a shorter amount of time than recommended on the package, the equivalent of an al dente, so they can finish cooking as they stir-fry in the pan with the sauce.
