Stir-Fried Coconut Noodles Recipe (2024)

I needed to use up leftover cooked pork tenderloin, so I cut it into bite-sized pieces, and skipped that cooking step. The only change I made was to add about a tablespoon of minced ginger along with the garlic, because, like peanut butter, it just makes everything better. After eating it, we thought it could benefit from some crushed red pepper flakes, so we added them at the table -- next time, I'll throw in a teaspoon with the ginger and garlic. A delicious dish.

This was good but it needs more flavor. Play around with spices you like to add more flavor!

This recipe was fun and adaptable (I made a lot of the suggested changes in the comments). It probably would have been a bit bland without those changes. Changes: -I soaked the noodles for 20 minutes (about 5 min less than the package directions because it will also soak a bit/finish cooking in the coconut milk). -Used zucchini instead of eggplant - just personal preference-To season, used white pepper, ground ginger, fish sauce, soy sauce, chili-garlic paste, lemon juice, brown sugar

I doubled the garlic and added 1Tbsp ginger and hot red pepper flakes to taste in that step. I added scallions and lime juice with the cilantro at the end. I reduced the oil - I used one tablespoon at the beginning. I used the fat remaining in the pan before the veggies, and I added one teaspoon of oil before the garlic. Don’t forget the fish sauce. Tasty!

It was good, but definitely needed additions of scallions, more garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, scallions, lime. And I did salt along the way. I reduced the oil 1 Tbsp at the beginning, just used fat in the pan for the veggies, and 1 tsp for the garlic/ginger/red pepper flakes.

Added more garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes in that step. Added scallions and lime juice at the end. Salted along the way. Reduced the oil - 1 Tbsp at beginning, used fat in the pan for the veggies, 1 tsp oil for the garlic etc. Don’t forget the fish sauce! Tasty.

Presteamed noodle eliminate the boiling and have healthy vatietes includingSoba and Udonone brand name is Ka-Me.I am lucky that a local store had them on the shelves a few years ago.the problem with ordering onlineis you have to order and and they only have large quantities of the same variety

As the other commenters said, this was pretty flavorless. I even added ginger and garlic as some others recommended along with chili garlic sauce and it helped but definitely wasn't a recipe I'll use again.

Didn’t love it. As others mentioned, it’s quite bland

Nothing to brag about. It needs spices and ... I wouldn't make again.

Very bland. Needs ginger, scallions, sriracha...

This is a good basic recipe for proportions and ingredients. It needs 2 things, I think: 1, Salting the meat, vegetables, and noodles as they cook. Whether I use fish sauce, soy sauce, salt or a combination, as I did, just adding them at the end only salts the sauce and not the other ingredients. 2, Adding more flavor. I chopped some fresh ginger with the garlic, and would double the amounts. I also added Kecap Manis, chili-garlic sauce, and sesame oil.

I used tofu instead of meat (which I seasoned with miso, for umami) and added lime at the end. Worked really nice.

This needs some red curry paste and lime. Then is was delicious. Without those, it was too bland.

Be careful with the sauce - better to err on the too little than too much side.

I agree with other comments. Also, I felt the amount of noodles overwhelmed the meat and veggies so would reduce the quantity in the next go-round.

I loved this dish when I used to eat pork. It's easy and delicious! Going to give it a try with some veggie ground round soon! I am hopeful :D
