Oh WOW. These Dragon Noodles are my new favorite quick fix! They only take about 15 minutes to make, they’re totally rich, flavorful, and SUPER SPICY. Like, “burn a hole through your stomach” spicy. Call me crazy, but sometimes I want that. No, I crave that.
The basic sauce for this formula utilizes just storeroom staples (soy sauce, earthy colored sugar, sriracha), which impeccably balance the sweet, pungent, and zesty flavors. The wealth of the margarine helps smooth everything out, cilantro adds a new note, and the green onions loan a flavorful back note. Everything simply works and it turns out to be unimaginably basic. What’s more, that is the means by which I like my food.I made a little two serving bunch since I simply needed something speedy and simple. You could without much of a stretch scale this up, if necessary. In the event that you need a heartier dish, take a stab at utilizing two eggs instead of only one. Likewise, I utilized two tablespoons of margarine, which made for an extremely rich and tasty sauce, yet I speculate that it would in any case be astounding on the off chance that you cut the spread down the middle.
In the event that you can’t track down the very noodles that I utilized, don’t worry. You could make this with ramen type noodles or even ordinary linguine. The noodles are the perfect vehicle for the entirety of the other yummy ingredients!Want to take it up a score? Attempt my Dragon Noodle Variations: Pork and Peanut Dragon Noodles, or Lime Shrimp Dragon Noodles. Numerous perusers have likewise remarked that they’ve added additional vegetables (take a stab at adding some frozen sautéed food vegetables), yet you’ll presumably need to twofold the sauce if adding a ton of additional vegetables.
These sweet, tangy, and spicy Dragon Noodles take only a few minutes to whip up and will kill your craving for take-out.
