KITTENCAL'S QUICK 5-MINUTE CHINESE NOODLES

Steps:

• Cook the spaghetti in boiling water until al dente (it is best to slightly under cook) drain then rinse well under cold water, then drain again; transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate until cold.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add in the chopped garlic and chili flakes, cook stirring for 2 minutes.
• Add in the cold spaghetti and toss using long tongs until the pasta is hot.
• Pour the soy sauce over the hot pasta and continue tossing with tongs adding in more soy sauce if needed until you have the desired flavor that you want.
• Season with black pepper if desired.
• Transfer to a bowl then toss with chopped green onions.

CHINESE NOODLE & VEGETABLE STIR FRY (FOR ONE)

Steps:

• Wash the cooked spaghetti, make sure it is damp.
• Prepare broccoli florets. Peel and slice carrot. Slice button mushrooms into thin slices. Chop up garlic cloves.
• Heat up some olive oil in a wok. When hot, pour out excess oil from wok. (I don't like my food oily, so I do this; but it's optional.).
• Fry 1/2 of the chopped garlic until fragrant. Add carrots and stir-fry, making sure heat is evenly spread. After about a minute, add broccoli florets. Stir-fry for a few minutes, until broccoli begins to darken, and then add the mushrooms and continue stir-frying for about a minute.
• Turn heat down and add 1/2 cup water to the wok. Add 1 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp mirin sauce. Continue stir-frying for a couple of minutes.
• Turn the stove off and cover the wok with a lid to make sure it remains warm.
• Prepare another wok by heating up some olive oil. Pour out any excess oil.
• Fry the rest of the garlic until fragrant. Add the spaghetti and stir-fry, making sure to mix well.
• Add 2 tbsp soy sauce (or to taste) and mix well. Turn heat down a little bit and add 1/4 cup water. Continue stir-frying for a few minutes before turning your stove off.
• Pour spaghetti and the spaghetti's 'sauce' into a plate. Add the vegetable stir-fry on top, making sure that the vegetable stir fry's sauce is also added inches.
• Serve hot.
