[TCF September] Molested by his Noodly Appendage

From TCF Sept

2 packets of yakisoba (in the Maruchan brand, it comes in 3 servings, use only 2)
oil for frying
1/2 large onion, sliced thinly (or 1 medium, or 2 small onions)
1 clove garlic, minced
1-2 carrots, julienned
1/4 of a small cabbage, diced
(the above are the classic yakisoba vegetables)
Whatever other vegetables or meats you have on hand--I used a handful of spinach and some shitake mushrooms with no meat. You can add in peas, spam, beef, broccoli, bell peppers...anything you want, really.
beni-shouga (optional)

The Maruchan yakisoba comes with a sauce packet, but if you want to make your own, here is the recipe for 2 servings:
1/2 cup soy sauce
2-3tbsp rice vinegar
1/4 cup mirin
1 tsp sugar
2-3tbsp worcestershire sauce

1) Heat about 1tbsp oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Stir-fry the onions and garlic first, then add the other vegetables in order of hard to soft (e.g. carrots first, then the leafy veggies, then mushrooms)

2) When the veggies are almost done, set them aside and heat a bit more oil in the pan. Add the two packets of noodles and 1/2 cup of water, and stir fry until it is all loose.

3) Add the vegetables back in and fry everything a bit more until it's all done. Turn off the heat, then add in the sauce packets/sauce. Garnish with beni-shouga (young pickled ginger) if you have it.
