These are stir-fried udon noodles that you can make in no time for a quick lunch on a day off, or when you don't have much time to make dinner.
It's a really convenient dish that you can make in no time on a busy day, plus it has lots of vegetables.
It's also easy on your wallet so it's a great dish to have especially right before payday.

Set aside about 1/3 of the soft part of the cabbage leaves and add it at the end. This way, you'll still be able to enjoy the texture of the cabbage even if you end up overcooking the rest of it.
The tough part will become sweeter when stir-fried well. Recipe by Chikobi
