Shanghai Spring Onion (Scallion) Noodles 葱油拌面
Fragrant, delicious and *insanely* easy. You are just 5 ingredients away from this bowl of deliciousness. Just because it’s free from meat doesn’t mean it’s any less tasty. Of course I needed to add chilli because it’s just not the same without spice 🌶 but traditionally it comes spice-free, so adapt it how you like.
Frying the slices scallions always makes my entire kitchen smell sooooo good all day long. You can also use more oil to make more fragrant oil to use for other dishes. It’s totally a great alternative seasoning oil to have.

- 2 stalks of spring onions
- 3-4 tbsps cooking oil
- 2 tbsps light soy sauce
