How to make Teriyaki Noodles
Firstly, I combined all the teriyaki sauce ingredients in a bowl. Then, I stirred it nicely and kept it aside.
Secondly, I heated oil in a nonstick wok and sautéed broccoli florets in it.
Next, I sauteed bell peppers in it and added some vegetable broth and let it cook at medium flame.
Thereafter, I poured in the sauce and gave it a nice stir. I let it cook for few minutes.
Afterwards, I tossed in noodles along with salt and mixed it well.
Then, I let it cook and rest at low flame until all the liquid was absorbed.
Lastly, I turned it off and mixed it again and garnished with sesame seeds.
We instantly fell in love with this dish and totally went gaga over it.
We enjoyed it for our lunch. Now, often I make it in mid-week which gives us a kick to happily work through the rest of the week.
Expert tips:
- Make sure to toss the veggies at high flame. It is important to cook all the liquids in medium flame though.
- After tossing the noodles, make sure to let it rest so that noodles are well soaked and absorbed in the sauce flavor.
This tastes best when served immediately. However, refrigerate the leftovers to be used the next day. Warm it up nicely in the microwave.
I have used healthier noodles. However, the sauce does consist of sugar quite which is the only extra calories. We can also make it oil free and save on some calories.
Simply pour ½ cup vegetable broth in a warm nonstick wok and sauté veggies in it. Then pour the sauce followed by other ingredients. Let them cook and absorb. Garnish and serve.

Teriyaki Noodles
Ingredients
- 1 recipe teriyaki sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup sliced colored bell peppers (red + green )
- 1/4 cup vegetable broth
- 2 squared cakes ramen noodles (cooked as per package instructions)
- salt to taste (optional)
- 1 tbsp white sesame seeds ( to garnish )
Instructions
- In a bowl, stir the ingredients of teriyaki sauce and keep it aside (do not cook at this point).
- In a nonstick pan/wok heat oil and sauté broccoli florets for 3 minutes at high flame.
- Add bell pepper and continue sauté for another 2 minutes at high flame.
- Then, add vegetable broth and mix. Let it cook at medium flame for 1 minute.
- Then, pour the teriyaki sauce and mix well so that all the vegetables are well soaked in the sauce. Let it cook at high for only 1 minute.
- Fold in cooked noodles and salt and toss at high flame for 2 minutes. Then, lower the flame and cook covered for 2 minutes. Turn it off and let it rest as is without disturbing for another 3 minutes. At this point all the liquid must be absorbed. Remove the lid and give it a toss making sure its dry. Or else let it rest for about 2 minutes.
- Lastly, garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately with hot sauce.
Notes
- I used gluten free brown rice and millet ramen noodles from Costco (Lotus brand). You may use regular ramen noodles as well and discard the seasoning. The cooking time would vary depending on the type of noodles you use. Regular ramen noodles might absorb all liquid quicker comparatively.
- I used my own homemade teriyaki sauce for this recipe. Make sure just combine the sauce ingredients in a bowl and keep it aside. Do not cook it separately. In this recipe, the noodles need to absorb the sauce to make it absolutely flavorful.
- Sesame oil flavors this recipe excellently but any oil of your choice also works.
- For oil free option: warm a nonstick and add ½ cup vegetable broth to it. Then, add broccoli florets and let it cook until little soft but not mushy. Toss bell peppers in it for 1 minute at high flame. Then, pour teriyaki sauce and let it cook at medium flame for 2 minutes. Then, toss in noodles and salt and mix well. Cook covered at low flame until all liquid is absorbed. Turn it off and mix again and garnish.
- Nutritional information will vary depending on the type of noodles you use.
