Garlic Noodles With Mushrooms And Chili Peppers (V, GF, SF Options)
This is my twist on a San Francisco noodle dish. Asian flavors of soy sauces and sesame oil meet the western flavors of olive oil and Asiago or parmesan cheese. And in the middle bring both sides together is loads of garlic. This recipe is easy to prepare and can be on the table in less that 25 minutes. This was DELICIOUSNESS ON THE PLATE!!!

Prep cheese and noodles
- With the microplane grate 1 cup of cheese and set aside.
- Cook noodles according to instructions on packaging. Drain and set aside.
Sautéing mushroom and vegetables
- While noodles are cooking, put oil into the wok over medium heat. Add all the mushrooms and sauté until the shiitakes are golden. Add celery and capsicums, sauté for 1 minute. Remove mushrooms and vegetables from wok, put into a bowl and set aside. Rinse and dry the wok.
- Add butter, garlic, dried chilies, along with 1 tbsp of oil to the cold wok. Turn heat to low and sauté for 3 minutes without browning. Stir constantly. DON'T BURN THE GARLIC! Add spring onion whites and sauté another 2 minutes.
Putting it all together
- Add premixed sauce to the wok, the sauté vegetables and most of the sliced chili pepper, reserving a few slices for garnish. Increase heat and bring to a bubbling boil.
- Immediately, add noodles and toss to coat well. Turn heat off. Add cheese and mix well.

Notes
Noodles
You can use any type of rice noodle or pasta that you like for this dish.
Gluten-free:
Use gluten-free soy sauces and pasta
Vegan:
Use vegan fish sauce, vegan cheese or nutritional yeast flakes. If using nutritional yeast flakes, blend in a coffee grinder to turn into a powder.
Soy-free
Try Bragg amino acids and coconut amino acids in place of the soy sauces.
Cheese
Use a good quality cheese that you have to grate yourself. The grated powder product that sits on the shelf will not do this dish justice. Turn the heat off when adding the cheese. This will help to melt the cheese verses turning it into a oil.
