Preparation
Garlic Noodles
- Place garlic, ginger, brown sugar and basil in a bowl.
- In a small frying pan, heat sesame oil and vegetable oil over high heat for 2 minutes, or until hot. Pour the oil into the bowl and stir well. This step is designed to lightly cook the garlic and ginger and release the flavours!
- Add soy sauce, hoisin sauce, chili crisp and salt and stir again.
- Cook noodles in boiling salted water according to package instructions. Remove 2 tbsp (30 ml) of cooking water and drain pasta. Rinse lightly and place in bowl with cooking water. Toss until pasta is well coated with sauce. Serve with hard-boiled eggs if desired!
