<Miwa’s tips> ※Watch more on YouTube!
・Chop all the veggies into small pieces to minimize the cooking time.
・ Udon noodles should be undercooked in step #2. You can also boil the frozen udon noodles for 1 minute. Drain the moisture from the noodles as much as possible.
・Keep the high heat through out the cooking process. Get your pan moving to prevent it from burning.
<Storage time>
Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
