Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the potato noodles according to package instructions until tender and chewy. Drain, rinse briefly under cold water, and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, dark soy sauce, chili oil, chili flakes, rice vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil to create the sauce.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and ginger and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Notes
Add vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or mushrooms for extra texture and nutrition.
Top with tofu or a fried egg for added protein.
Adjust spice level by reducing or increasing chili oil and flakes.
Add a spoon of peanut butter to the sauce for a richer flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Reheat in a skillet with a splash of water to restore texture; avoid over-microwaving.
