Ginger Noodles Recipes

GINGER-SCALLION RAMEN NOODLES

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, chicken broth, rice vinegar, cornstarch, ginger, honey, and garlic together in a small bowl; set aside.
• Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook ramen noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of cooking water.
• Heat sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add scallions and carrots to the hot skillet and quickly stir-fry until soft, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium-low, pour in sauce, and cook until sauce starts to thicken, about 2 minutes. Stir in drained ramen noodles, separating and tossing them with tongs until coated. Add reserved cooking water a little at a time until you reach your desired consistency.

GINGER BEEF AND NOODLE BOWLS

Steps:

• Cut steaks crosswise into 1/4-inch thick strips; cut strips in half. Heat 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add ginger and garlic; cook for 1 minute. Add half of the beef and stir-fry for 2 minutes, or until the outside surface of the beef is no longer pink. Remove from skillet. Repeat with remaining oil and beef. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove from skillet and keep warm.
• Add broth, green onions, and mirin to skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, divide noodles and beef evenly among 4 large soup bowls.
• Bring broth mixture to a boil over high heat. Ladle boiling mixture evenly over beef and noodles. Garnish with carrots.

GINGER-SCALLION RAMEN NOODLES

Steps:

• Toss ginger, garlic, and two-thirds of the scallions in a large bowl to combine. Heat grapeseed oil in a small saucepan over high until hot and shimmering but not smoking, about 2 minutes. Immediately pour hot oil over aromatics. The scallions will sizzle, turn bright green, and wilt almost immediately. Let sit 5 minutes.
• Mix soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, pepper, sugar, and remaining scallions into oil mixture; season with salt. Let sit 15 minutes for flavors to meld. Taste sauce and season with more salt if needed.
• Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions; drain.
• Toss noodles in a large bowl with as much or little sauce as you'd like. Divide among bowls and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve with chili oil alongside.

STIR-FRIED GINGER NOODLES

Steps:

• Bring a large heavy-based saucepan of salted water to a boil and blanch the noodles for about 2 minutes. Refresh under cold water.
• Peel and finely chop the ginger and garlic. Cut the chile in half lengthwise, deseed, and finely chop. Shred the spring onions and pick the leaves from the cilantro. Wipe and slice the shiitake mushrooms.
• Heat the sunflower oil in a large heavy-based wok. When hot, fry the garlic, ginger, chile, and mushrooms until brown, about 3 minutes. Add the noodles and spring onion; stir to combine, about 3 minutes.
• To serve, arrange the noodles in a serving dish and garnish with cilantro leaves.

GINGER NOODLES

Steps:

• Cook spaghetti according to package directions; drain.
• In a small bowl, whisk together all remaining ingredients.

THAI PRAWN & GINGER NOODLES

Steps:

• Put the noodles in a bowl and pour over boiling water to cover them. Set aside to soak for 10 mins. Stir together the orange juice and zest, curry paste, fish sauce, sugar and 3 tbsp water to make a sauce.
• Heat the oil in a large wok and add half the ginger and the garlic. Cook, stirring, for 1 min. Add the pepper and stir-fry for 3 mins more. Toss in the sugar snaps, cook briefly, then pour in the curry sauce. Add the beansprouts and prawns, and continue cooking until the prawns just turn pink. Drain the noodles, then toss these into the pan with the herbs and remaining ginger. Mix until the noodles are well coated in the sauce, then serve.
