I love the idea of the mixture of curry in this traditional udon noodle recipe! If you haven't tried udon noodles: they are a thick noodle used in many Asian recipes Ingredients:
4 tablespoons oil |
1/2 cup flour, plus |
2 tablespoons flour |
1 -2 tablespoon curry powder |
5 cups vegetable stock or 5 cups mushroom stock |
4 tablespoons soy sauce |
2 teaspoons maple syrup or 2 teaspoons other artificial sweetener |
8 -10 ounces udon noodles |
water, for boiling udon noodles |
3 -4 scallions or 3 -4 green onions, chopped |
Directions:
1. In a 2 quart saucepan, heat the oil. Add the flour and cook, stirring for a minute over low heat. Add the curry powder and cook another minute. Whisk in the hot vegetable stock all at once: it will thicken almost instantaneously. Add the soy sauce and syrup and cook until thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon.
2. Cook the udon noodles in a large pot of boiling water. When al dente, drain well, rinse and place into 4 large bowls. Fill each bowl with curry sauce, top with scallions and serve immediately.
