Important Notes

⚠️

The secret to extra flavor is wok-charring the cabbage first. This creates a wonderful smoky, sweet base for the dish.

⚠️

Preparing the udon noodles by briefly boiling them is essential. Tossing them directly into the wok from the package will cause them to break apart.

⚠️

This is a very fast recipe, so have all your ingredients chopped and measured before you start cooking (mise en place).

⚠️

The chili flakes are optional and can be adjusted to your preferred level of spiciness.
