Sauce and Garnishes
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp hoisin sauce

Instructions
- Cook Noodles: Cook the noodles according to package directions in boiling water until al dente. Drain thoroughly and set aside to prevent sticking.

- Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Add tofu, chicken, or shrimp for extra protein to make it a more filling meal.
