H-06 LIFTOFF
CHILLI GARLIC
NOODLES.
Springy noodles tossed through garlic, soy, sesame oil and H-06 LIFTOFF, then finished with spring onion and sesame seeds. Fast, glossy and far more serious than instant noodles deserve.
HOW TO MAKE IT
METHOD.
MAKE THE SAUCE.
Combine H-06 LIFTOFF, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, cornflour and black pepper in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth.
PREP THE AROMATICS.
Mince the garlic, grate the ginger and slice the spring onions. Keep the white and green sections of the spring onions separate.
COOK THE NOODLES.
Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions until just tender. Avoid overcooking them because they will finish in the sauce.
RESERVE THE WATER.
Scoop out approximately 125mL of the noodle cooking water before draining. Shake away excess water, but do not rinse the noodles.
FRY THE GARLIC.
Heat a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the neutral oil, garlic, ginger, spring onion whites and sliced chilli. Cook for 30–45 seconds until fragrant.
ADD THE SAUCE.
Stir the sauce again, then pour it into the hot pan. Allow it to bubble for approximately 30 seconds until glossy and beginning to thicken.
TOSS THE NOODLES.
Add the drained noodles and toss continuously until every strand is coated. Add the reserved noodle water a little at a time until the sauce becomes smooth and glossy.
FINISH THE SAUCE.
Continue tossing over high heat for 1–2 minutes until the sauce clings to the noodles and no watery liquid remains in the bottom of the pan.
FINISH AND SERVE.
Divide the noodles between bowls. Finish with spring onion, sesame seeds, sliced chilli and extra H-06 LIFTOFF. Serve immediately while everything is hot and glossy.
HARRY'S TIP
SAVE SOME NOODLE WATER.
A splash of starchy cooking water helps the sauce cling to the noodles instead of collecting sadly at the bottom of the bowl. Add it gradually. This is dinner, not soup.
THE IMPORTANT PART
TOSS THEM WITH
H-06 LIFTOFF.
Roasted garlic flavour and ghost pepper heat run through the soy and sesame sauce, coating every strand without turning the dish into pure punishment.
