Ingredients
- 8 Oz (one bag) Chinese Glass Noodles
- 1 Large Red onions, Diced
- 6 Cloves Garlic, Minced
- 2 TBS Sesame Oil
- 3 TBS Light Brown Sugar
- 2 TBS Soy Sauce
- 2 TBS Oyster Sauce
- 1 Cup Chicken Stock
Directions
-
There are many ways to cook glass noodles. they can be fried or boiled. But I like to soften them in hot water first and then finish cooking them in a sauce for maximum flavor. They absorb the sauce to get a wonderful flavor.
-
So, first thing, in a large bowl, soak the entire contents of the noodles in VERY HOT water for 10 minutes.
-
While the noodles are soaking, make the sauce… In a wok (or large frying pan), heat the sesame oil to just before it starts to smoke.
-
Add the onions and saute for 5 minutes until they soften and turn translucent.
-
Add the Garlic and saute for another 2 minutes.
-
Add the brown sugar, soy sauce and oyster sauce and stir to mix.
-
Add the Chicken Stock and raise the heat until the sauce begins to simmer
-
Now, take the noodles from the hot water, drain, lay them on a cutting board and cut them into 3-4 inch pieces.
-
Add these to the simmering sauce and mix well. Lower the heat to low, cover and simmer for 5 minutes more. All of the liquid should be absorbed into the noodles.

Serve Hot and ENJOY!
