instructions
1
Prepare the ingredients & make the furikake peanuts:
Fill a medium pot with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut off and discard the bottom 1/2 inch of the broccoli stem; roughly chop the broccoli. Peel the carrots; thinly slice on an angle. Halve the orange crosswise; squeeze the juice into a medium bowl. Roughly chop the peanuts; place in a bowl. Add the furikake and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper; toss to combine.
2
Make the sauce:
To the bowl of orange juice, add the black bean sauce, demi-glace, and sweet chili sauce. Stir to combine.
3
Cook the vegetables:
In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat the sautéed aromatics on medium-high until hot. Add the chopped broccoli and sliced carrots; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes, or until slightly softened. Add 1/4 cup of water (carefully, as the liquid may splatter); season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and the water has cooked off. Turn off the heat.
4
Finish & serve your dish:
While the vegetables cook, add the noodles to the pot of boiling water, stirring gently to separate. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 4 minutes, or until tender. Drain thoroughly and rinse under warm water 30 seconds to 1 minute to prevent sticking. Transfer to the pan of cooked vegetables. Add the sauce. Cook on medium-high, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until thoroughly combined. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the finished noodles garnished with the furikake peanuts. Enjoy!
