Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon white sugar
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
• 4 teaspoons ketchup
• 1 cup potato starch, or as needed
• 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt

• 0.25 cup thinly sliced green onions
• 0.75 cup boiling water, or as needed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine 1 cup potato starch, salt, and vegetable oil in a bowl. Add a splash of boiling water at a time, stirring between additions, until you get a perfectly textured dough.

Step 2

Transfer to a work surface dusted with a little potato starch. Working quickly while the dough is still warm, knead, adding more potato starch if necessary, until smooth and elastic.

Step 3

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Set out a large bowl of cold water.

Step 4

While the water is boiling, roll dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Cut into 1/4-inch noodles with a pizza cutter. Separate noodles.

Step 5

Add potato noodles (in batches if desired) and cook until they float, about 1 minute. Transfer to the bowl of cold water. Repeat to cook remaining noodles.

Step 6

Whisk oyster sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup, sesame oil, sugar, and Sriracha together in a bowl.

Step 7

Add sauce and stir until noodles are coated. Cook until noodles are heated through and sauce starts to simmer, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in 1/4 cup chopped cilantro.

Step 8

Divide noodles into 2 bowls and garnish with more cilantro and red pepper flakes.

Step 9

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and sizzle for 15 seconds. Add 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes and green onions; stir-fry for a just few seconds. Before the garlic starts to brown, add in the potato noodles. It's okay that some water comes into the pan as it will stop the cooking process and prevent the garlic from burning.
