Chilli Garlic Noodles
As the weather starts to cool down, there's nothing quite like a warm bowl of noodles to comfort you. These chilly garlic noodles are the perfect mix of spice and comfort. Made with simple garlic and herbs, these noodles are sure to hit the spot.
These garlic noodles are the perfect dish for a party also. They are made with fresh garlic, ginger, and scallions (also known as spring onions), and are stir-fried in a light sauce. The noodles are then tossed with a slightly sweet and tangy sauce and served with a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
The garlic and ginger give the noodles a slightly spicy flavour, while the scallions add a touch of sweetness. The sauce is the perfect balance of salty and sweet, and the sesame seeds give the dish a nutty flavour.
