How to Make Udon Noodles With Broccoli

  1. If using dried mushrooms, soak them in warm water for 15 minutes. Drain and slice.
  2. Press the tofu to remove excess water. Cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
  3. Julienne the carrot.
  4. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add udon noodles and broccoli florets. Cook according to package directions, usually 8-10 minutes, until noodles are tender but still slightly firm. Drain well.
  5. Heat 2 tablespoons peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
  6. Add chilies, garlic, and ginger; stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
  7. Add onion and stir-fry for 3 minutes, until softened.
  8. Add cabbage, carrot, and mushrooms. Stir-fry until cabbage wilts (about 3-4 minutes).
  9. Add the cooked udon noodles and broccoli to the wok.
  10. Stir in sesame oil, black bean sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, and bamboo shoots.
  11. Stir-fry for 2 minutes to combine.
  12. Remove chilies (if desired). Stir in rice vinegar and lemon juice.
  13. Add tofu cubes and gently stir to heat through.
  14. Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds.
