Ingredients

  • 12 oz. Rice noodles
  • 2 Tablespoons Hoisin sauce, vegan
  • 1/4 Cup Vegan Oyster sauce, homemade* or store bought*
  • 2 Tablespoons Light soy sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon Dark soy sauce
  • 1/3 Cup Peanut butter, organic or regular
  • 1/4 Cup Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Sesame oil
  • 4 Cloves Garlic, chopped
  • 1/2 a Sweet onion, chopped
  • 3-4 Small red Chinese or Arbol chilies, dried
  • 1 Cup Thai basil, chopped*

Instructions

  • Cook the noodles according to package directions. I usually use the soaking option since they will be stir fried as well. Then drain the noodles.
  • Whisk together the hoisin, oyster sauce, soy sauces, peanut butter and water in a small mixing bowl until completely combined. Set aside.
  • Then, heat the sesame oil on medium high, in a large non-stick skillet or wok.
  • Add the garlic, onion, and chilies(using 3-4 depending on how spicy you want it).
  • Saute for about 5 minutes, reducing heat as needed until the onions are translucent.
  • Now, add the basil to the skillet and saute for another minute.
  • Then, add the drained noodles to the skillet and toss to combine.
  • Pour the sauce you made over the noodles and then toss to coat the noodles in the sauce.
  • Saute for another 3-5 minutes to saute everything together and brown the noodles a bit.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more soy sauce if needed.
  • Serve with extra basil if desired, and your favorite protein if you want.

*There are also some great vegan oyster sauce brands like Wa Ja Shan.
*If you can't find Thai basil, regular fresh basil will work too!
