Instructions

1. 1

   In a wok or large pan over medium high heat, add oil then onions, cabbage and carrot and cook for 2-3 minutes, until onions are translucent.

   Push the vegetables to one side of the wok and add shrimp and mushrooms to the empty side. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until the shrimp are cooked through.

3. 3

   Transfer all the ingredients to a bowl and set aside.

4. 4

   Using the same wok, add one yakisoba serving and follow the instructions on the package (it usually says to add 1/4 cup water and to loosen the noodles – using chopsticks is the easiest way – for about 30 seconds). Add the seasoning and stir well.

6. 6

   Transfer to a plate and serve with benishoga (optional). Repeat the same steps for the remaining noodle servings.
