    Thank you Lisa! This was Delicious & I highly recommend to anyone reading this! I initially was looking for a Yaki udon recipe but this was such an awesome find. I don’t own a microwave and I was able to make this quick on the stove. Boiled water to cook the frozen udon, also tossed in frozen corn and edamame – then blanched spinach before I strained the water. Tossed back in the pot, mixed together the seasoning and ready to serve.
    It’s was perfection! I will be sharing with friends and family 🙂

    Soo good! Quick and easy. Used fresh udon, frozen corn, and boiled it all in a little water! Didn’t use vegan butter tho…🤫

    Very easy, very quick and super delicious! I’ve actually made this recipe several times. I just run hot tap water over noodles till separated, but I still microwave to warm everything up.

    So creamy and delicious! I made this tonight and can definitely see this recipe becoming a regular dinner staple, especially on nights I can’t be bothered to fuss around in the kitchen. The kewpie mayo recipe is incredible too, and so versatile. I didn’t have mentsuyu so just used veg stock and soy sauce instead – still really good!

    My go to recipe when I feel lazy! I must have made it already 5-times and I LOVE IT!
    I am actually sad because currently my microwave is broken and I can’t make this dish. Hopefully it will get fixed soon

    this recipe and the shoyu udon one have both very quickly become my work from home lunch favorites. they’re so easy and don’t require any ingredients that you might not have around. plus you can pretty easily add or sub ingredients depending on what you have around.

    i have an executive functioning disorder which makes meal prep and cooking difficult but these udon recipes take nearly all the stress out of it which is why they grew on me so quickly. 🙂

    Great recipe for a quick supper! I used a pan because we don’t have a microwave and it worked just fine. Love the miso and butter combination, really cosy. Thanks so much!

    I used my rice cooker to make this. added some cabbage while it steamed and some sesame oil at the end. DEFINITELY would make again (and I will after I try the sesame miso version.)

    MY FAVORITE. I have this dish at least twice a week! I’m not fully vegan, so I modify by using a lower fat mayo, and I also love adding kimchi or gochujang to it. Also, I always use mushroom powder and is so good. Thanks, Lisa, for this amazing recipe!
