Miso paste offers a similar umami flavor with less sugar.

sesame oil

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is a more affordable option with a neutral flavor.

fresh ginger

🥗Healthier: ground ginger

💰Cheaper: none

Ground ginger can be used but may alter the fresh flavor.

noodles

🥗Healthier: zucchini noodles

💰Cheaper: rice noodles

Zucchini noodles are lower in carbs, while rice noodles are cost-effective.

Boil water in a vessel and add udon noodles; cook for 1-2 minutes.

Add a bit of cold water to the noodles, turn off the heat, cover, and let it cook.

Check if the noodles are done; drain and rinse under cold water to remove starch.

In a bowl, mix together sesame oil, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, and hoisin sauce; set aside.

Heat a wok and add a bit of oil.

Once the oil is hot, add finely chopped ginger and garlic; sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Add finely chopped mushroom and sauté for 1-2 minutes on high heat.

Add finely chopped pak choy (or broccoli) and sauté.

Add bean sprouts and finely chopped spring onion; sauté quickly without overcooking.

Add the stir-fry sauce mixture to the wok and mix well before adding the cooked udon noodles.

Toss the noodles with tongs to mix everything together; no additional salt is added as the sauces contain salt.

Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and serve.
