Guest Recipe:
Shrimp Sauce
with Two-Sided Golden Noodles

by Iris Tsai



Serves 4

  • 1 pound fresh noodles
  • 2 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 3 heads baby bok choy, cored and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 red bell pepper, cored and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups Shrimp Sauce, warm
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons minced garlic chives, for garnish
  • Grapeseed or canola oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

  1. Boil noodles in salted water until al dente. Drain and combine with oil to keep strands from sticking together.
  2. Heat a large, flat-bottomed non-stick pan over medium-high heat covered well with oil. When oil is hot, add noodles in an even layer, covering the bottom of the pan. Let cook, without moving, until golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes. When browned, flip and brown the other side, adding a touch more oil to pan.
  3. Meanwhile, in a wok over high heat coated lightly with oil, add sliced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add bok choy and red pepper, season with salt and pepper, and stir-fry until tender-crisp, about 2 minutes.
  4. To serve, gently place noodle cake on platter. Top with Shrimp Sauce, spreading to cover entire surface of noodles. Top with bok choy stir-fry, drizzle sesame oil over and garnish with garlic chives.
