Equipment

  • Large skillet

Ingredients

  • 16 oz udon noodles cooked per package instructions (I used fresh noodles)
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1-2 tsp brown sugar to taste
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • Serving:
  • Toasted sesame seeds
  • Green onion sliced
  • Spicy Chili crisp

Instructions

  • Cook the noodles per the packet instructions; drain.  Side Note: If the noodles are sticking together, rinse them. My udon noodles did not stick together.
  • Brown the butter by melting it in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, swirling often until the butter begins to brown and has a nutty aroma.
  • Remove from the heat and immediately stir in the heat and whisk in the soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger.
  • Finish the dish by adding the drained noodles to the large skillet and place on the stovetop over medium heat. Toss to coat the noodles evenly and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Serve immediately topped with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onion. Enjoy.
