This is part 2 of the Stir Fry & Yakisoba Parallelism. This is my adaptation of yakisoba, a favorite street food and festival food of mine from Japan. Soba noodles are buckwheat noodles, so this dish may be good for anyone who suffers from diabetes (just take it easy on the mirin).  The dish usually has carrots and cabbage, but I had broccoli around and didn’t have cabbage around, so I adapted. I also used zarusoba, which is sweet potato soba. 

First I started cooking the noodles. Don’t worry, I took off the little piece of paper before I put it in. 

Added some seasame oil to the pan. I feel seasame oil help add alot of taste to asian dishes, so I use it. 

And my vegies are: brocolli, carrots, and garlic. Again, no cabbage. 

Started cooking the vegies a bit. 

Cooked it a bit and then added garlic

Added the sauces. (same as in the stir fry). 

Strained the noodles. I actually made a bit too many noodles. 

Adding the noodles. 

Stir it around a bit. Actually I think this needs a bit more sauce, since I made too many noodles. 

After adding some sauce, I cooked it a bit longer until it started sticking to the wok. Then I plated it

Looks good doesn’t it?

This is good enough for some people, but I need my Sircahi :)

Oh yeah!

 
Look at the beauty of it. Look spicy enough?

In all, the sauce for both dishes are the same, then techniques are the same. You can basically use any vegies. All that I personally differ is the noodles. You can even do dishes like yakiudon or something. Sounds good, doesn’t it?
