Equipment

- skillet
- colander
- bowl
- Knife
- cutting board
Ingredients
Sauce
- 2 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Pasta and Vegetables
- 8 oz angel hair pasta
- 4 cloves garlic
- ½ bunch green onions
- 4 tablespoon butter
Instructions
Cooking Instructions
- Add the oyster sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, and sesame oil to a bowl and stir until combined.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the noodles according to the package directions (boil for 7-10 minutes). Drain the cooked noodles in a colander, then set aside.
- While the pasta cooks, mince the garlic and slice the green onions. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Once the butter is melted and bubbly, add the garlic and onions (save a few for garnish) and sauté until they are soft and fragrant (1-2 minutes).
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the drained pasta and oyster sauce mixture to the skillet, and stir well to coat the pasta. If your pasta is stiff or sticky making it hard to stir, sprinkle a small amount of hot water over the pasta to loosen it up. Garnish the pasta with any reserved sliced green onions, then serve.
Notes
Oyster sauce can be found in the International aisle of most major grocery stores. If you can't find it, Asian markets usually have it for less. The flavor of oyster sauce is key for this dish. Hoisin sauce can be a substitute but is much sweeter. You can reduce the sugar if desired. Angel hair pasta is recommended, but other long pastas or rice noodles can be used.
