- Green onions
- 2, sliced (for garnish)

Instructions
- Cook the udon noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside, tossing them with a bit of vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
- In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot.
- Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Sauté for about 1 minute, stirring frequently until fragrant.
- Incorporate the julienned carrot, sliced bell pepper, and broccoli florets into the skillet. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp and vibrant.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil to create the stir-fry sauce.
- Add the cooked udon noodles to the skillet, followed by the stir-fry sauce. Toss everything together until evenly coated and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
- Serve hot and enjoy this delightful dish with your choice of protein, such as chicken, beef, or tofu, if desired.
Tips
- Feel free to customize the vegetables based on your preference or seasonal availability.
- For an extra kick, add a teaspoon of chili paste or sliced fresh chilies while sautéing the garlic and ginger.
- If you prefer a gluten-free option, substitute the udon noodles with rice noodles and use gluten-free soy sauce.
