spicy cheesy udon easy quick meal chili oil

Welcome back to another Quick Meals post!

Alright noodle lovers, I’ve got this simple recipe up my sleeves that only takes 10 minutes (or less!) to prepare. If you’re a fan of smooth, creamy noodles with a spicy kick, then this spicy cheesy udon noodles is perfect for you! It’s definitely a favorite in our household.

The beauty of it is that most of the ingredients can easily be found in your pantry or fridge! It’s a pretty effortless dish to make and a great choice to be part of your dinner rotation.

Spicy Cheesy Udon Noodles

Essentially, this dish is simply udon noodles coated in a sauce made from garlic, milk, chili oil, and a cheese combination of your choice. My cheese combo just so happens to be American cheese (*gasp* I know. But it’s so good!) and mozzarella cheese. However, you can swap that out with whichever ones you please.

ingredients you’ll need

(For full ingredient measurements, please proceed to the recipe card below.)

  • Udon noodles
  • Garlic 
  • Milk or heavy cream 
  • Chili oil: I used my Homemade Chili Oil.
  • Sugar: To balance out the saltiness and round out the flavor.
  • Salt (if needed)
  • American cheese
  • Mozzarella cheese 
  • Roasted seaweed (for garnish)
  • Green onions (for garnish)

how to make easy 10-minute spicy cheesy udon noodles

  1. Boil the udon noodles and drain.
  2. Saute minced garlic on medium heat for a few minutes, make sure not to burn it.
  3. Add milk and bring to a simmer. Once it starts simmering, add chili oil and stir.
  4. Turn down the heat to low and add cheese. Stir until the cheese melts.
  5. Add sugar and stir. Taste for seasoning, add a pinch of salt if needed.
  6. Add udon and coat noodles with the sauce.
  7. Serve and garnish with roasted seaweed and green onions. Enjoy!

notes for 10-minute spicy cheesy udon noodles

  • Milk substitutes: If you use heavy cream instead of milk, you’ll get a thicker sauce. Other substitute options are coconut milk, heavy whipping cream, evaporated milk, or half and half.
  • I used my own homemade chili oil.
  • The amount of chili oil used should be up to preference.
  • Use the type of cheese/combination and amount of cheese that you prefer. Season accordingly since it depends on the type of cheese you use. Some cheese will make the sauce saltier than others.

    Definitely another easy recipe! I’m not used having my udon being sweet so I was taken back a little. For me personally, I will decrease the amount of sugar I put in it. However this would be a kids hit because it’s not as spicy as you think it would be and it’s sweet!

    Whenever I add the cheese to the milk, it immediately curdles and I’ve found no way around this

The best pizza in the city where pizza was invente The best pizza in the city where pizza was invented @farahjeats 🍕 
📍Pizzeria Da Michele, Naples, Italy 
📍 Pizzeria D’angeli, Naples, Italy
We got pizza from one of the oldest pizzerias in Naples, Italy and it didn’t disappoint. We got there right when it opened and there was already a line. We ended up getting the pizzas to-go and ate it on the hood of our rental car. Each box of pizza was only €5 and we got every item on the menu (it was only a 4 item menu anyway 😂). While waiting in line, the smell of the wood fired pizza was sooo good we were so hungry by the time we got our orders. We got pizzas from across the street too just to compare. There was no line at that restaurant and you could easily get a table. It was a little bit more expensive per pizza but still affordable. Both pizzas were delicious! Still dreaming about it till this day 🥲
Fun fact: Eat, Pray, Love was filmed at Pizzeria Da Michele!

Mee (mie) goreng, a quick and easy stir fried noodles recipe that’s great for lunch or dinner. Popular in Malaysia and neighboring countries like Indonesia and Singapore— with each country having their own version of it. Chewy noodles infused with spicy, tangy and savory flavors, and ready within 30 minutes!
This is definitely not an authentic recipe but a simplified version that my mother-in-law makes often and now a recipe that I make quite a lot for a quick breakfast using ingredients easily accessible to us here. It definitely hits the spot! Feel free to add protein of your choice to this dish or just add a fried egg on top! 
I’ll work on an authentic Malaysian mee goreng recipe and share soon ☺️

Try these Crispy Air Fried Crab Stick Crackers for size. A classic snack that could almost always be seen during Chinese New Year festivities in Malaysia. All you need are some crab sticks, a bit of seasoning, and a few tablespoons of oil!
This is such an easy and addictive snack. I always have to make a lot if I’m sharing because I tend to finish the first batch all by myself 😂

Ramadan recipe #21 Rendang Ayam (Dry Chicken Cocon Ramadan recipe #21 Rendang Ayam (Dry Chicken Coconut Curry) @farahjeats 
Save and share this flavorful and delicious recipe!
Ending my Ramadan series with one of the best dishes. This is a dish that’s traditionally served during Eid/Raya in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. Every family usually has their own version of this. It’s usually served with nasi impit (cubed rice), lemang or pulut kuning (turmeric glutinous rice) but also just as good with white rice. 
Making this is a truly a labor of love especially when you make big batches. It can take hours! Families will cook this the night before Eid so the dish will be ready in time for the big celebration. The whole house will usually smell like rendang when this is made and honestly, one of the best smells that reminds me of such great and fond memories. 
This month just flew by— thanks so much for tuning in. I’ll be back with my usual twice a week recipes starting next week 💛
