Yakisoba Bun

This is not a nutritious meal and it violates carb-on-carb rule, but hubs had it once and liked it so who am I to argue with his taste buds. It makes for an easy to prepare weekday lunch as well. This isn't so much a recipe since it is pretty much putting things together.

Buy a packet of yakisoba noodles from an Asian grocery store which comes with yakisoba seasoning which is a mixture of sweet, salty and tangy, kinda like an Asian BBQ sauce. Prep ingredients of choice to go into noodles. I used napa cabbage and green onions as these are what I had on hand, you can use carrots and other vegs you like.

The noodles will usually be packed into small packets and to make cooking them easier, put them in a bowl with some water and microwave for about 90 seconds. This helps to loosen the noodles which will make your life much easier when you are stir frying them.

Heat some oil in a wok/pan and cook the vegetables first. When they are 90% done, add in the noodles. Mix the noodles and vegetables well and sprinkle the seasoning on top and mix them all together.

Put some yakisoba into a hotdog bun. Add some Japanese mayo and furikake for extra taste. Enjoy!
