Tips for cooking with noodles
- Have the sauce mixed and the vegetables chopped before the noodles go in; the stir-fry part takes minutes.
- Rinse cooked noodles in cold water if they will sit before frying, so they do not stick together.
- A fried egg, a handful of greens and a spoon of chilli oil turn a plain bowl of noodles into a fuller dinner.

Questions about noodle dinners
Can I use a different noodle from the video?
Usually. Egg noodles, rice noodles and udon swap in most stir-fries; just follow the packet time for whichever you have.
Can I pick vegan noodle dinners?
Yes. Choose "Vegan" and we only pick from videos chosen for a vegan diet. Check the sauces in the recipe, as fish sauce and oyster sauce are common in noodle dishes.
Which noodle dishes do the videos cover?
Mostly stir-fries and noodle soups: chow mein, pad thai, udon and ramen, from quick weeknight versions to takeaway-style ones.
