Ingredients
  

  • 240 g homemade noodles or store-bought spaghetti/ramen
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4–6 cloves garlic thinly sliced
  • ½ teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
  • 2 fillets salmon (90g each, cut into bite-sized pieces)
  • 2 tablespoons light soy sauce (low sodium)
  • 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 2–4 tablespoons butter
  • 120 ml hot chicken broth or noodle cooking water, to adjust sauce consistency
  • 1 handful leafy greens (bok choy, spinach, or broccoli)

Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Skillet or Wok
  • Tongs or Spatula
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Butter

Method
 

  1. Boil 10 cups of water in a large pot for the noodles.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté sliced garlic until golden.
  3. Add salmon pieces to the skillet and cook for about a minute per side until opaque but still pink inside.
  4. Mix light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, and brown sugar in the skillet to make the sauce, adjusting with broth as needed.
  5. Drain the cooked noodles and toss them in the skillet with the sauce. Add butter gradually until melted and combined.
  6. Blanch greens in the same pot used for the noodles and set aside.
  7. Serve by dividing noodles onto plates, topping with salmon and arranging the greens alongside.

Notes

Feel free to substitute homemade noodles with store-bought spaghetti or ramen. Shrimp or tofu can replace the salmon for different protein options. Always reserve some noodle cooking water for adjusting the sauce consistency. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to two days and reheat gently with a splash of water. Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavors, such as fresh garlic. Adjust the spice level by varying the amount of chili flakes or adding sriracha for a kick.
