This is so good!!! Made this late at night. It was so easy, so fast, and it smelled (and tasted) so good that my SO came to steal over half of it from my bowl. He's not vegan and not usually interested in my food. As good as it looks and as easy as the IG video shows. Ready in a few minutes and no messy kitchen to clean up after! The microwave is my favorite cooking appliance 😉

UH-MAZ-ING
I can’t stop making this dish - it’s too easy to make and delicious. My boyfriend isn’t even a huge fan of udon (I know, he’s insane) and he’s just as obsessed as I am. Can’t wait to make it again (and again)!

So easy and quick to put together and tasty too! I don't have frozen udon, just a "fresh" vacuum packed bag, so just covered a portion with boiling water, drained and then carried on with the recipe. Will definitely be making this again when I work late and don't have time to faff with making dinner or using pots and pans.

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
