Ready in just 25 minutes, this comforting dish is perfect for a quick and satisfying meal that brings together classic Japanese flavors with simple ingredients and easy stovetop cooking.

Ingredients

Sauce Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1½ tablespoons mirin
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Main Ingredients

  • 2 packets frozen udon noodles (250g per packet)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 lb cremini mushrooms, sliced

Optional Garnish

  • Chopped green onions
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine soy sauce, garlic powder, oyster sauce, mirin, and brown sugar. Stir well until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
  2. Boil water: Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil for the udon noodles.
  3. Cook mushrooms: Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced cremini mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes until mushrooms are browned and tender.
  4. Cook udon noodles: While mushrooms are cooking, boil the udon noodles in the pot of boiling water following package instructions. Typically, this takes about 1 minute. Drain noodles thoroughly.
  5. Combine noodles and mushrooms: Add the drained udon directly to the skillet with the cooked mushrooms.
  6. Add sauce and toss: Stir the prepared sauce again and pour it over the noodles and mushrooms. Toss everything gently but thoroughly to combine and coat the ingredients evenly with the sauce.
  7. Garnish and serve: Optionally, garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving hot.

Notes

  • Using low sodium soy sauce helps control the saltiness of the dish.
  • Fresh mushrooms can replace frozen if preferred, but adjust cooking time accordingly.
  • For added protein, consider adding tofu or cooked chicken.
  • Mirin adds a mild sweetness and depth; if unavailable, a combination of sake and sugar can be substituted.
  • This recipe serves 3 but can be scaled up or down easily.
