Stir fried udon noodles with seafood in XO sauce
Here's another fave version of fried udon .....
As with the one I've made few months before , this version is usually seen at some cha chaan tengs ( Chinese -style diner that serves Chinese-Western food on the cheap ) all over Hongkong .....
It's simple and hearty dish that's easy to prepare and makes a very satisfying meal for the whole family .
My modification :
40 grams fish fillet
40 grams squid 150 grams fish fillet
20 grams Japanese crabstick 80 grams shrimp
20 grams baby octopus 150 grams crabstick , sliced in half
20 grams shelled shrimps 1 small green bell pepper
1/2 green bell pepper , sliced 1/2 each of yellow and red bell pepper
1/2 red bell pepper , sliced 1/2 of a medium onion , sliced
1/4 onion , sliced 1/2 of a small carrot , sliced
1 1/2 pack udon noodles 1 sprig spring onion
some sliced carrot 1 tsp fermented black beans
20 grams yellow chive ,sectioned 4 packs ( 200 grams each ) udon noodles
1 sprig spring onion , sectioned
some fermented black beans Seasoning : 1 T dark soy sauce , 2 T water

* Rinse seafood ; drain well and pat dry . Heat oil in a wok and pan-fry seafood until cook and set aside .
* In the same pan ,stir fry udon until cook ( I stir fried mine for 5 minutes ) ; set aside. If the wok or pan is sticky , wash it .
* Heat oil in a wok , stir fry fermented black beans , until fragrant ; add the bell peppers , carrot and onion and cook until tender , about 3 minutes .

ReplyDeleteAnne, this looks colourful and appetizing. I like the use of fermented black bean in this noodle dish... it is definitely the "soul" of this dish for me.
