SOBA NOODLE VEGGIE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Fill a medium pot halfway with water and bring it to a boil. Add the soba noodles and cook until tender, about 4 to 6 minutes.
• While the noodles cook, heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the garlic, ginger, onion, bell pepper, and broccoli. Cover the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Strain the soba noodles and add them to the vegetables in the skillet.
• Push everything to one side and crack the egg into the skillet and cook, breaking up the yolk and white until scrambled, then mix into the vegetables and noodles.
• Add the coconut aminos, Sriracha, and nut butter and mix well. Serve warm.

STIR-FRIED SOBA NOODLES WITH LONG BEANS, EGGS AND CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• First cook the soba noodles. Bring 3 or 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. Add salt to taste. Add the noodles gradually, so that the water remains at a boil, and stir once with a long-handled spoon or pasta fork so that they don't stick together. Wait for the water to come back up to a rolling boil - it will bubble up, so don't fill the pot all the way - and add 1 cup of cold water. Allow the water to come back to a rolling boil, and add another cup of cold water. Allow the water to come to a boil one more time, and add a third cup of water. When the water comes to a boil again, the noodles should be cooked through. Drain and toss with the sesame oil in a bowl and set aside.
• Mix together the stock, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar in a small bowl. Mix the minced chiles, garlic and ginger in another bowl. Place all of the ingredients within reach of your wok.
• Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Meanwhile beat 1 of the eggs in a bowl and add salt to taste. Swirl 1 teaspoon of the oil into the wok and add the egg, using a rubber spatula to scrape out every last bit. Tilt the wok to spread the egg into a pancake and cook until set, 30 seconds to a minute. Using a metal spatula, flip over and cook for about 5 seconds, then transfer to a cutting board. Cut into 2-inch long by 1/4-inch wide slices. Repeat with the other egg.
• Add the remaining oil to the wok, swirl the pan, then add the garlic, ginger and chile and stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds. Add the long beans and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and stir-fry for 2 minutes, or until they collapse a little in the wok. Add the noodles, the stock mixture, and salt to taste, turn the heat down to medium and stir-fry for about a minute, until the liquid has evaporated. Sprinkle with pepper, add the eggs and cilantro, stir-fry to heat through, and serve.

CHINESE STIR-FRIED TOMATOES AND EGGS

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs well with 1 teaspoon salt, sesame oil and rice wine or sherry. In a small bowl, stir together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water until well combined, then stir in the sugar and ketchup.
• If using fresh tomatoes, core and cut them into 1/2-inch wide wedges.
• Heat a wide nonstick skillet over high heat with 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil. When the oil shimmers, add most of the scallions, saving some to garnish. Cook, stirring, until very aromatic, about 20 seconds. Add the eggs, and cook, stirring well with a spatula or chopsticks, until just set but still runny, about 45 seconds. Pour the eggs back into the mixing bowl, and wipe out the pan.
• Reheat the pan over high heat with the remaining tablespoon of oil. When it is hot, add the ginger and cook until aromatic, about 15 seconds. Add the tomatoes and salt to taste; cook, stirring occasionally, until the flesh has softened but still has some shape and the juices have begun to form a sauce, 2-3 minutes. (If using canned tomatoes, add the juice as well and cook about 4 minutes, to reduce it to a saucelike consistency.)
• Reduce the heat to medium. Give the cornstarch-ketchup mixture a stir in its bowl, then stir it into the pan. Cook, stirring, until the sauce returns to a boil and thickens. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, sugar or more ketchup - you want a savory, tart-sweet sauce. Stir the eggs in the bowl to cut up the curds a bit, then return them to the pan. Cook, stirring, for a few seconds to finish cooking the eggs and to combine. Top with the reserved scallions, and serve with steamed rice.
