These garlic chili oil noodles are loaded with so much flavor and are insanely addicting. Ramen noodles tossed in a spicy, garlicky chili oil, with caramelized shallots, toasted sesame seeds and fresh scallions.
Ingredients
- ½ cup Canola or vegetable oil
- ¼ cup Garlic minced fine
- 1 Shallot sliced thin
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Korean chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon Ginger peeled and grated
- 2 teaspoon White granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds toasted, plus more for garnish
- 2 teaspoon Rice vinegar
- 3 tablespoon Soy sauce reduced sodium
- ¼ cup Green onions sliced, plus more garnish
- 8-9 oz Dried ramen noodles
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, start the pan cold with canola oil, garlic and shallots. Simmer over low heat to infuse the oil. Stir occasionally until the garlic turns a light golden brown color and the shallots begin to caramelize, about 5-6 minutes.
- Next, add grated ginger. Stir until the ginger becomes fragrant. Then, add chili flakes, sesame seeds, sugar and sesame oil. Cook for 1 minute.
- Stir in rice vinegar and soy sauce. Bring to a gentle simmer and remove from heat. Add sliced green onions. Then, pour chili oil into a large serving bowl.
- In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Once the noodles are finished cooking, drain the water.
- Add the hot noodles into the bowl with the chili oil. Toss until all the noodles are coated. Season with salt, if needed. Then, sprinkle with thinly sliced scallions and toasted sesame seeds.
