What You Will Need for Chilli Garlic Noodles

Noodles: Any long noodles work like spaghetti, egg noodles, or ramen noodles. I usually use spaghetti if I don’t have Asian noodles on hand.

Garlic: Fresh minced garlic is key. It’s the star of this dish and gives it a strong, delicious flavor.

Chilli Sauce: Use sriracha, red chilli paste, or your favorite hot sauce. Adjust to your spice level.

Soy Sauce: Adds savory, umami flavor that balances the heat.

Oil: Vegetable or sesame oil for stir-frying.

Tips:

  • Cook the noodles just until al dente so they don’t get mushy.
