Notes

For added flavor, caramelize the garlic slowly over low heat before adding the sauces. Experiment with different noodles like spaghetti or udon for a variation. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to three days; reheat gently on the stovetop. Use freshly grated ginger instead of ground for a fresher taste. Adjust the chili flakes according to your spice preference.
