Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 serving frozen udon noodles (250g)
  • 1/2 cup shimeji mushrooms (60g // or mushrooms of choice)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable of choice, optional (approx. 40g)*
  • 1 scallion, sliced (12g)
  • 1 tbsp vegan butter (13g)
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce (15ml)
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Place the udon to a microwave safe bowl and cover with a plate. Microwave for 1 minute (600W). Add the mushrooms and then microwave for another 1 1/2 minutes. Add remaining vegetables (if using), scallion whites, vegan butter, soy sauce, garlic powder, salt and pepper and microwave for another 1 minute.

  1. I was sceptical given the short cooking time, but this is so delicious! I used 200g udon instead, added an extra 20g mushrooms (used King oyster tops sliced) withbok choy. Ripper
