Ingredients
 
 

  • 1.10 lb udon frozen kind recommended
  • 2 cups cremini mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 1 cup heavy cream or sub with evaporated milk or 18% table cream but simmer it longer
  • cup onion thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup water
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 tablespoon butter unsalted
  • 2 tablespoon oyster sauce or sub with vegetarian oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper or as needed
  • 1 green onion finely chopped for garnishing
  • ½ teaspoon black sesame seeds optional garnish (or sub with regular toasted sesame seeds)

Instructions
 

  • Soak frozen udon noodles in hot boiling water for 30 seconds or until loosened and strain immediately in a colander. Set aside. If you're using fresh udon, you can skip this step.
  • Heat a large pan on medium heat and melt butter. Sauté garlic and onions until softened, about 1-2 minutes
  • Toss in sliced mushrooms. Then add ¼ cup water. Cook until mushrooms have softened, about 4-5 minutes, and most of the liquids in the pan have evaporated.
  • Mix in oyster sauce, garlic powder, black pepper and heavy cream. Increase to medium high heat and simmer for 3 minutes.
  • Once sauce has thickened a bit. Toss in strained udon noodles and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Garnish with green onions and black sesame seeds. Serve hot and enjoy.
