Preparation

  2. Drain the noodles immediately and rinse them under cold running water to stop the cooking process.
  3. Toss the drained noodles with a light drizzle of neutral oil to prevent sticking.

Cooking Aromatics
  1. Heat a large wok or skillet over medium to medium-high heat and melt the butter.
  2. Add the chopped onions and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  3. Add minced garlic and ginger, and constantly stir for 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant and soft.
Combine Noodles and Sauce
  1. Add the drained noodles to the pan with the aromatics and toss immediately.
  2. Pour the pre-mixed sauce over the noodles and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Season with salt and pepper, adjusting to taste.
Garnish and Serve
  1. Remove from heat and scatter sesame seeds over the noodles.
  2. Serve immediately while hot.
