SWEET & SAVOURY STIR FRIED UDON NOODLES

Sometimes even the best cook can run out of inspiration, especially when all that's left in the fridge is a mix of random veggies—perhaps a lone broccoli stem or a bag of carrots. For those days, we love to turn to the classic Stir-Fried Udon Noodles. It's one of the most versatile recipes out there, allowing you to swap any veggies listed in the recipe with whatever you have on hand. You can also add your favourite proteins to make the meal even more satisfying.
No udon noodles in your pantry? What perfect timing! We've just rescued over 2500 packs of Mr. Chen Udon Noodles that were rejected by supermarkets due to their approaching best-before dates! And if you're a Farmers Pick subscriber, you can get them for up to 40% off!
While you're at it, take a peek at our Farmers Pick Pantry, freshly stocked with OVER 28 NEW essential items such as olive oil, herbs, pink salt, and high-quality tomato sauce.
