How to Make Spicy Vegetable Egg Noodles
- Bring the vegetable broth to a boil in a large pot.
- Add the egg noodles and cook according to package directions, usually around 8-10 minutes, until al dente.
- While the noodles are cooking, heat a separate skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the carrots and bell peppers and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
- Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, chili garlic sauce, and grated ginger.
- Once the noodles are cooked, drain them, reserving about 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.
- Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce over the noodles and vegetables, tossing to combine.
- If the mixture is too dry, add a little of the reserved cooking liquid until you reach your desired consistency.
- Serve immediately, garnished with toasted sesame seeds (optional) and chopped scallions.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
