A quick and flavorful noodle dish featuring zucchini and a savory garlic soy sauce, perfect for a weeknight dinner.
Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil.
Adding a pinch of salt to the water can enhance the flavor of the noodles.
Cook the noodles according to package instructions until tender, then drain.
Rinse the noodles with cold water after draining to prevent them from sticking together.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, rice vinegar, and brown sugar until combined.
Stir the sauce until the sugar is fully dissolved for a smooth consistency.
Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat and add a splash of oil.
Ensure the wok is hot before adding ingredients to achieve a good stir-fry texture.
Add the zucchini and garlic to the wok and stir-fry for 3 minutes.
Cut the zucchini into even slices for uniform cooking.
Add the cooked noodles to the wok and stir-fry for another 2 minutes.
Toss the noodles gently to avoid breaking them.
Pour the sauce into the wok and toss everything together until well coated.
Ensure the sauce evenly coats all the noodles and vegetables.
Transfer the stir-fried noodles to a serving platter and garnish with chopped cilantro.
Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its best flavor and texture.
