    Fresh Chinese Noodles with Brown Sauce


    Source of Recipe


    Miami Herald Jan 24, 2002 The Minimalist Cooks Dinner by Mark Bittman

    Recipe Introduction


    Bittman suggests serving this dish with a green salad dressed with Soy Vinaigrette (3 tablespoons rice vinegar mixed with 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, 1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil and salt).

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 to 3/4 pound ground turkey
    1 cup minced green onions, divided use
    1 tablespoon peeled and minced fresh ginger
    1 tablespoon minced garlic
    1 cup chicken broth or water
    2 tablespoons ground bean sauce; see cook's notes
    2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
    1 tablespoon soy sauce
    1 pound fresh egg or wheat noodles
    1 tablespoon Asian sesame oil

    Cook's notes: Ground bean sauce is sold at Asian markets. Koon Chun is one brand; it contains ground soybeans, salt, flour, sesame oil, sugar and spices.

    Recipe




    Begin heating large pot of water for noodles. Meanwhile, put large skillet over medium-high heat. Add turkey, crumbling to bits as you add and stirring to break up clumps. Add 1/2 cup green onions, ginger and garlic; stir. Add broth or water; stir in bean sauce, hoisin and soy. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat and keep warm.

    Cook noodles, stirring, until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain and toss with turkey mixture. Garnish with remaining green onions and drizzle with sesame oil. Makes 4 servings.
