    Dress up your ramen noodles in 10 minutes or less by making this Garlic Scallion Noodles recipe. Fast, flavourful, and easy!

    This easy garlic scallion noodles are so easy and versatile. You can substitute the ramen noodles with any types noodles you have on hand. The cook time might increase by a minute or two since pasta noodles take a little longer to cook than ramen noodles but don’t let that dissuade you! I’m obsessed with how delish the green onions get after being crisped up in some oil.

    Why You’ll Love This Scallion Noodles Recipe

    • It’s fast! You literally just toast the scallions and minced garlic in oil, then toss the noodles in it along with a splash of soy sauce and oyster sauce. It really does take 10 minutes or less.
    • It’s easy to change up to suit your tastes such as adding in hot sauce or honey.
    • It’s a fun way to change up plain ol’ instant noodles.

    What You’ll Need

    • ramen noodles or instant noodles — or use pasta noodles, udon noodles, yakisoba noodles, etc. Whatever you want.
    • peanut or vegetable oil
    • scallions/green onions
    • salt
    • minced garlic
    • soy sauce – I usually try to use low sodium soy sauce.
    • oyster sauce – don’t worry, while it’s made from oyster extract, it doesn’t taste like oysters!

    What is the Difference Between Green Onions and Scallions?

    There’s not difference between green onions and scallions! They’re the same thing but they just have two different names. Not to be confused with spring onions though as those have bulbs at the bottom unlike scallions/green onions.

    Did you buy too much? Here’s how to freeze green onions!

    How to Make Scallion Ramen Noodles

    A pot of cooked noodles.
    • Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook your ramen noodles 1 minute under the instructions on the package. Mine cooks in 4 minutes so I cook it to 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
    • Oil and scallions cooking in a skillet.
    • Fried scallions in oil.
    • Add oil into a skillet or a wok on medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot (slightly shimmer-y) add in the green onions. Stir the green onions in the oil until the colour has changed and they start looking toasty.
    • Add in a pinch of salt.
    • Minced garlic added to hot oil.
    • Noodles added to the skillet of scallion oil.
    • Add in minced garlic and continue to stir until the green onions and garlic are fragrant.
    • Add in the cooked ramen noodles.
    • Soy sauce and oyster sauce added to noodles in the skillet.
    • Scallion noodles.
    • Add in the soy sauce and oyster sauce.
    • Toss to coat the noodles evenly with the garlic scallion oil.
    • Serve with more green onions as a garnish if desired.

    Tips and Notes

    • If you’d like to make this sesame noodles spicy, add a tablespoon of sambal oelek or sriracha.
    • To make this scallion noodles a bit sweet, you can add a drizzle of honey to the sauce or a tablespoon or two of brown sugar.
    • You can cut your onions diagonal or straight. You can also cut them as short or long as you’d like.
    • Be sure to wash and pat dry the green onions throughly. If not dried, they will splatter when added into hot oil.

    Make Ahead Tips

    • Meal prep: store the cooked scallion noodles in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge.
