🙋 Recommended for

  • ⭐ Cooking beginners who want to try a sweet-salty stir-fried noodle dish with no complicated sauce measurements and extremely low failure chance.
  • ⭐ Those who want to enjoy an Asian-style oil pasta with a savory, meaty base that is different from olive oil-based pastas.

Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings

  • 1 serving of pasta noodles
  • 1~2 strips of pork belly
  • ½ onion
  • a little carrot
  • ½ green onion
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • ½ cup pasta water
  • a pinch of salt

Recipe 🍳

  1. In a pot, add plenty of water and a pinch of salt. When the water boils, add the pasta noodles and cook for about 5 minutes, then drain in a colander.
  2. Place the pork belly strips on a dry pan without oil. Cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, until the surface is golden brown on both sides.
  3. When the pork belly is fully cooked, cut it into bite-sized pieces with kitchen scissors. If there is excessive oil, lightly dab half of it with a paper towel.
  4. Move the meat to one side of the pan. Add the sliced onion, carrot, chopped green onion, and 1 tablespoon minced garlic. Sauté in the rendered pork oil until fragrant and lightly golden.
  5. When the vegetables have softened, add the drained pasta noodles and ½ cup of pasta water to the pan to keep it moist.
  6. Add 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, the key seasoning, over the noodles. Stir-fry everything together over high heat until well combined.
  7. When the pasta water is fully absorbed, creating a glossy coating from the oyster sauce, turn off the heat.
  8. Transfer the finished pasta to a bowl. Optionally, sprinkle with sesame seeds or black pepper to taste.
  1. Boil the pasta noodles lightly and drain. Pan-fry the pork belly until golden and cut into pieces with scissors.
  2. Add the prepared onion, carrot, green onion, and minced garlic to the pork oil and stir-fry until fragrant.
  3. Add the boiled noodles, pasta water, and 1 tablespoon oyster sauce. Quickly stir-fry over high heat until the sauce coats the noodles evenly.

Cooking tips 💡

  • If there is too much pork oil, the pasta can become greasy. For a cleaner finish, lightly dab the excess oil with a paper towel before stir-frying.
  • One spoonful of oyster sauce packs intense seasoning and umami, so there's no need for extra salt beyond cooking the pasta.
  • For added crunch and volume, you can julienne some leftover mung bean sprouts or cabbage from the fridge and stir-fry them together.
