Our Favorite Noodles with Greens and Gravy


Again, I apologize for the horrible picture quality but we are in the final week of this challenge and there are a few I wanted to knock off my list. This was a really tasty noodle dish. It was really similar to Rad Nah which I posted back a few months ago. I did sub thinly sliced brocolli for the bok choy but kept everything else the same. The flavor was great, the problem I have with these stir-fried noodle dishes is that I can never get my noodles soft enough ... they are always pretty chewy even after soaking for 20 minutes. The couple times I've had success with these type of dishes is when I double the amount of liquids so that there is plenty of broth to let the noodles steep in for 5-10 minutes at the end.

I really think all asian noodles are a little bit different, so I try to follow the package directions...if it is in English. I am glad you tried this one. I was wondering about it. Are you just cooking for one still?

Yep, it's just us bachelorettes for a few more days. I did make the noodles last for 3 meals ... but it was hard! This is another one I think you should try sometime ... I really liked it with the broccoli.
