Colombian flavors

The smell in the kitchen of fried plantains and chimichurri brings me back to my childhood with my grandma teaching me is all about the flavors.

Spicy chicken
noodles

* 250 g udon noodles I used dry (Or you can use 2 packets, fresh noodles see notes)
Sauce
* 2 tsp gochugaru or other chili powder (see notes)
* 1 tbsp oyster sauce
* 1 tbsp soy sauce
* 1 tbsp sugar or to taste
* 1 tsp sesame seeds
* 1 tbsp sesame oil
* 1 tbsp water
Minced Tofu
* 2 tbsp canola
* 300g thin sliced chicken, ground chicken or pork
* 2 tsp soy sauce
Stir-Frying
* 1 tbsp canola
* 1 tbsp minced garlic
* 1 tbsp minced ginger
* 2 green onions cut 2”
* 2-4 tbsp water to cook down

* If you’re using instant fresh udon noodles or 'cakes' in packets, you can simply soak them in hot water for a few minutes or run them through hot water to carefully separate them. These noodles can also easily break apart so don't force it when they're clumped together.

Sauce
* Prepare the sauce by mixing everything together.

Stir-fry
* Heat a large wok or non-stick pan over medium high heat. Add in the oil.
* Once hot, add in the chicken over medium heat for 3-4 minutes for it to lightly crispy and brown at the bottom.
* Season with the dark soy sauce. Mix well.
* add in half of of the chopped scallions or green onions. Cook for 1 minute.
* add in the noodles.
* Pour the sauce over the noodles and mix well.
* Leave the noodles to cook over medium high heat for 2 minutes.
* Add in some water to cook down the noodles, if needed. You can start with 1-2 tbsp and mix well. You can see the notes below.
* Taste the noodles and feel free to season with some salt and pepper , if desired. Once the noodles are cooked to your liking, turn off the heat.
* Top the noodles with more chopped scallions or green onions. Serve and enjoy while hot!
