  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 long red chile pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 white onion, sliced
  • 2 carrots, sliced into sticks
  • 9 ounces shiitake mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 bok choy, sliced, white stems and leaves separated
  • 3½ tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoons shaoxing wine
  • ½ teaspoon white pepper
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon cornflour
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon black tahini
Directions
  1. Cook the noodles according to the packet directions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool.
  2. Drizzle the noodles with the sesame oil and toss to prevent the noodles from sticking together.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together all of the sauce ingredients. Set aside.
  4. Heat minced garlic, chile pepper, and onion in a large pan or wok coated in vegetable oil over medium high heat for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add the carrot sticks, sliced shiitake mushrooms, and the sliced white stems of the bok choy to the pan. Stir-fry for three minutes or until the vegetables are slightly tender.
  6. Add the remainder of the bok choy, the noodles and the sauce to the pan and toss until everything is well combined.
  7. Continue to cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the noodles are heated thoroughly.
  8. Remove the pan from heat and garnish with the chopped scallions and black sesame seeds.
  9. Serve the noodles hot and enjoy.
