October - December 2024 COTM + COOKING FROM thread: NEW YORK TIMES COOKING (website & cookbooks)

UMAMI GARLIC NOODLES (with Napa Cabbage instead of Mustard Greens)

The NYT version is here and a no-paywall version is here (and previously written up here (and many other times).

MC adds mustard greens, but I usually add whatever vegetables I have at hand, which tonight was Napa cabbage.

I used king oyster mushrooms because I finished my dried shiitakes and can’t find the new package I know I bought, lol.

This is a really easy and delicious pantry dish, and I make it often. Tweak the seasonings to taste – depending on the strength of your fish sauce and other things, you may need a bit more or less to get the balance right for you.

Highly recommend!

(Tonight I ate these with the last piece of Viet lemongrass pork chop, also from Andrea Nguyen.)
