Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 1 small white onion, sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 cups chopped broccoli florets
  • 1 large carrot, peeled and sliced into long strips
  • 1 can baby corn (15 oz), drained and cut into smaller pieces

Noodles

  • 2 pouches Hokkien Stir-Fry Noodles (7 oz each)
  • Drizzle sesame oil (for topping noodles)

Sauce

  • ½ cup broth (beef, chicken, or vegetable)
  • ½ cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • Pinch red pepper flakes
  • 2 cubes frozen ginger

Other

  • 1 tbsp sesame oil (for roasting vegetables)
  • Green onion, sliced for garnish
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep Vegetables: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Slice the red bell pepper, peel and slice the carrot into long strips, slice the white onion thinly, and chop the broccoli into florets.
  2. Roast Vegetables: Spread 1 tablespoon of sesame oil evenly on a large sheet pan. Add the prepared vegetables and toss using your hands to coat. Spread them out evenly and bake for 15 minutes to begin roasting.
  3. Make the Sauce: While the vegetables roast, whisk together the broth, low sodium soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, fish sauce, cornstarch, red pepper flakes, and frozen ginger cubes in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
  4. Add Noodles and Baby Corn: Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Push the roasted vegetables to one side. Drain and cut the baby corn if whole, then add it and the noodles (gently broken apart) to the open half of the sheet pan. Drizzle a little sesame oil over the noodles and stir gently to mix.
  5. Continue Baking: Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for an additional 18-20 minutes. Stir the noodles once about halfway through baking to prevent burning. The dish is designed to have a delightful contrast of tender and slightly crunchy noodles.
  6. Finish and Serve: Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Pour the prepared stir-fry sauce over the vegetables and noodles. Toss thoroughly to coat everything evenly. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can substitute the beef broth with chicken or vegetable broth for different flavor variations.
  • Adjust red pepper flakes according to your spice preference, or omit for a milder dish.
  • For added protein, top with cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
  • Make sure to stir the noodles halfway through the second bake to avoid sticking or burning.
  • Extra crispy noodles add texture, so feel free to bake longer if desired.
