- – 1 large carrot sliced
- – 1 red bell pepper sliced

- – 1/2 tsp (3 ml) smoked paprika
- – Salt and black pepper to taste

- – ⅔ cup (160ml) vegetable broth or water
- – 3-4 tbsp (53 ml) tamari or soy sauce (GF) or coconut aminos

- – 1 tbsp (15 ml) cornstarch

Instructions
- Watch the video for a visual guide. Boil your choice of noodles in salted water until they are firm to the bite, ensuring they do not get too soft.
- At the same time, warm oil in a frying pan or wok and cook ginger and garlic on medium heat for approximately 2 minutes, making sure to stir often. Incorporate mushrooms, carrot, red bell pepper, zucchini, and the seasonings, then cook for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables have softened, stirring regularly. You can add a bit of water or vegetable broth to prevent burning.
- For the sauce, combine all sauce ingredients (vegetable broth, tamari, rice vinegar, maple syrup, cornstarch, and red pepper flakes) in a medium-sized bowl and mix with a whisk. Alternatively, place the sauce ingredients in a mason jar, secure the lid, and shake well.
- Transfer the sauce into the pan and allow the mixture to simmer. Let it cook gently for about 1 minute.
- Introduce the drained noodles to the pan and mix everything together. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, sampling the dish and adjusting the flavor by adding more salt, pepper, tamari, or sweetener as necessary. For a creamier texture, consider adding a few spoonfuls of peanut butter.
- Top with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, serve immediately, and enjoy! Keep any leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
