Udon noodle is so versatile you can have udon with soup, or you can opt for stir fry version. If up to me, I prefer to have my udon stir fry with vegetable, seafood, and mix sauce. Today, I’m going to share with you my Stir Fried Black Pepper Udon Noodles recipe.

My husband loves noodle a lot; it can be any noodle, like ramen, udon, wan tan mee, mee hoon and so on. So, I have my fair of share recipes in noodle department.

If you can take the heat, you may as well add 1 tbsp of chili paste or even add another tablespoon of black pepper sauce for an extra kick!

Whenever I have a busy day, stir fry noodle recipes always come to my rescue. It’s so easy to wash and cut a few vegetables, combined a sauce and directly stir fry the noodle. It’s so easy!

So, hopefully you will try this recipe and let me know how’s it turns out.

Good Luck!
