Asian noodle bowl



First things first. The picture is really lousy (it is likely the worst pic I have ever posted here), but the good news is that I have finally gotten my cell phone to send pix to my email address. Now all I need to is hold the camera still and get more light. Anyhow - I made this one-dish Asian dinner in my wok tonight. I didn't measure anything, I did onion and both Chinese and Japanese sausage first, set them aside and did the baby bok choy while the udon noodles were stewing in some broth for 3 minutes. Tossed everything together and served it up in hot bowls. Here's what went into it:

Asian noodle bowl
1/2 an onion, cut into half moon slices
4 Japanese sausages
2 Chinese sausages
a bunch of baby bok choy, bottoms trimmed and leaves separated (it was probably 6 cups of leaves)
2 packs of udon noodles (about 4 oz)
2 handfuls of mung bean sprouts
ponzu sauce, a few splashes
Shiaoxing cooking wine, a few splashes

I guess I've done my duty by getting all that written down (it wasn't written down before I started cooking). In spite of the picture it was very tasty and filling.

  5. I'm with Mary, the ingredients sound delicious. As for the photo, I've had many that don't stand up to the dish! Thanks for stopping by. Hopefully you can find some of those unripened tomatoes--a farmer perhaps?

    Best,
    Bonnie

  6. Stephen, I came over from your sarcastic :D remark at Jenn's blog. That sort of thing - chipolte - irritates me too. Made me think of nuke-you-ler for nuclear! Anyway ... I'm a big fan of Asian noodle dishes and this one sounds delish!

  7. I have a hard time cooking with baby bok choy. Mainly because Alexis keeps holding it and saying "how cute" it is.

    The noodle bowl sounds good with that savory sausage in there. I still haven't gotten by our Asian market to see if they have it.
