Ingredients
  

8 oz (225g) egg noodles (or your preferred noodle type)

4 tablespoons vegetable oil

6 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons oyster sauce (or mushroom sauce for a vegetarian version)

2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 cup broccoli florets

1 bell pepper, thinly sliced

4 green onions, chopped

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Cook the Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

    Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Set this sauce aside.

      Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not burnt.

        Add the Veggies: Toss in the broccoli and sliced bell pepper. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.

          Combine Noodles and Sauce: Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and pour the prepared sauce over them. Toss everything together, making sure the noodles and vegetables are evenly coated with the sauce.

            Finish and Serve: Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently until heated through. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped green onions. Garnish with fresh cilantro and sesame seeds, if desired.

              Plate and Enjoy: Serve the spicy garlic noodles immediately in bowls, savoring the delightful fusion of flavors!
