Nagoya No Ankake Yakisoba Omuraisu (nagoya-style Ankake Yakisoba Omelette)

Ingredients

  • 4 servings of yakisoba noodles
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1/2 cup of cabbage, shredded
  • 1/2 cup of bean sprouts
  • 1/4 cup of ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until translucent.
  2. Add the julienned carrot, shredded cabbage, and bean sprouts to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  3. Add the yakisoba noodles to the pan, breaking them apart and stirring to combine with the vegetables.
  4. In a bowl, mix together the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, oyster sauce, and soy sauce. Pour the sauce over the noodles and vegetables, stirring to coat everything evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  5. Season the yakisoba with salt and pepper to taste, then divide the noodles among 4 plates, shaping them into neat mounds.
  6. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and pour in the beaten eggs to make 4 omelettes.
  7. Once the omelettes are set, place each one on top of the yakisoba mounds, folding the edges over to cover the noodles.
  8. Serve the Nagoya no Ankake Yakisoba Omuraisu hot, with extra sauce on the side if desired.
