Prepare the sauce:

Prepare the vegetables while heating a large pot of water to boil: (4-6 quarts)

  4. Mince the garlic, grate the ginger.
  5. Slice the scallions and chop the cilantro.

Cook the Noodles

  1. Once your water is boiling rapidly, add soba and use tongs to spread out. Cook for 3 ½ minutes. Keep stirring with the tongs.
  2. Immediately drain soba and transfer to a bowl with cold water to stop the cooking.
  3. Drain again and put in bowl of fresh cold water while cooking the vegetables.

Stir fry the Vegetables.

  3. Add carrot and stir fry for 1-2 minutes until vegetables are just tender but still crisp.
