What inspired this story was, in one weekend we was ate at this “vegan asian restaurant”, we have fried udon which turn my kids loving it so much, that was the first time my kids having udon, they love the chewy thick texture which I immediately knew, they going to love. Then okay, next time I go grocery shop I’d tried to find one.

I finally go for grocery shop, I found the udon, initially I want to buy chilli-garlic sauce for my basic stir fried ingredient, but I didn’t found any, instead I found this chilli-dried shrimp and black bean sauce, I never taste it before so I got one. I still remember the fried udon, so I think I am going to make one, this is spicy one so definitely this are not for my kids.

I like it, I keep the rest vegan friendly, but if you really mind about the dried shrimp you can find chilli-black bean sauce. The rest ingredient are my simple standard staple like sweet soy sauce and vegetarian stir fried sauce. I thought this would be super spicy, but was quite mild for me, and maybe will be quite hot for you, each person have different tolerant on spiciness, I also took some habanero chilli, only one though, they said it would be super spicy, funny which remind me of my favourite chilli stir fried that I enjoy with fried tofu and warm rice, and I’d be on spicy heave, literally torturing my stomach.
