Steps:
- 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.
- Prepare the sauce by mixing everything together. You can see the notes below and adjust the spice level according to your reference. Set the sauce aside.
- Heat a large wok or non-stick pan over medium high heat. Add in the oil.
- One hot, add in the tofu. You can continue to crumble this as needed, especially if there are big chunks.
- Leave the tofu untouched over medium heat for 3-4 minutes for it to lightly crisp and brown at the bottom. It'll also start to dry up and resemble minced 'meat' as it cooks and the water evaporates.
- Season the tofu with the dark soy sauce. Mix well.
- Leave the tofu to cook for another 3-4 minutes until it completely dries up and resembles minced meat. Afterwards, move the tofu to the side of the pan.
- Add 1 tbsp oil into the pan. Over medium heat, sauté the minced garlic.
- Afterwards, add in half of of the chopped scallions or green onions. Cook for 1 minute.
- Add in the shiitake mushrooms and then stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until tender.
- Once the mushrooms are cooked to your liking, add in the noodles.
- Pour the sauce over the noodles and mix well.
- Leave the noodles to cook over medium high heat for 2-3 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 upper, 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!

SPICY STIR-FRIED UDON NOODLES
The first time I had sauteed udon noodles, I fell in love. Most try udon in soups, but the flavors from a hot pan and excellent sauces make this spicy stir-fried version so much better. I mixed together my concoction of Asian flavors and produced this lovely dish that is great for family, friends, and guests. I promise you they will love it more than your generic Asian takeout.

Steps:
- Mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, Sriracha, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic powder, and pepper together in a small bowl. Combine 1/2 of the marinade with pork in a bowl. Refrigerate, 4 hours to overnight. Reserve remaining marinade for noodles.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook udon in boiling water for 2 minutes; add broccoli to blanch slightly and continue to boil until noodles loosen, about 1 minute more. Strain and set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a wok or deep pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; stir-fry until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add pork, bean sprouts, and carrot; stir-fry until pork is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add drained udon noodles and broccoli. Pour in remaining marinade and toss noodles to absorb flavors, 2 to 3 minutes. Add green onion; toss lightly, 1 to 2 minutes.
