I made this for the first time tonight and it officially makes the list of favorite family recipes. Mac even asked me to make it for his birthday party, which of course the most important day of the year.
The recipe came from this site (and was found on Pinterest). Make sure you follow the link to check out her site since she has photos of the steps and more information about the recipe.
I added a little more sugar, an extra garlic clove and next time I make it I'll add a dash more soy sauce. I was also able to find the sesame oil and oyster sauce easily (actually it was even at Target)
Garlic Noodles
Ingredients:
Angel Hair Pasta 8 oz
Garlic 4 minced cloves
Green Onions ½ bunch
Butter 4 tablespoons
Soy Sauce 2 teaspoons
Brown Sugar 2 tablespoons
Sesame Oil 1 teaspoon
Oyster Sauce 2 tablespoons
Instructions:
In a large pot, bring water to a boil to cook the noodles according to the directions on the box (enough water to cover noodles, boil for approximately 5 minutes). While the pasta cooks, mince the garlic and chop the green onions. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is melted and bubbly, add the garlic and onions and saute until they are soft but not browned. While the pasta, garlic and onions are cooking, mix the oyster sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce and sesame oil together in a bowl. Once the pasta is done cooking, drain it in a colander. Remove the skillet with the sauteed garlic and green onions from the heat. Add the drained pasta and oyster sauce mixture to the skillet and stir well to coat the pasta. If your pasta is stiff or sticky making it hard to stir, mix in a small amount (1/4 cup or less) of hot water to loosen them up.
