30-min Scallion Oil Noodles

Scallions are also known as green onions and they can be found as a garnish in my recipes (including my own!). But today, we’ll be making homemade scallion oil which can then be used to coat the noodles to make these easy Scallion Oil Noodles.

What makes Scallion Oil Noodles NOT vegan?

If you happen to stumble across these noodles at a Chinese or Asian Restaurant, they might often contain pork. But other than that, the ingredients are very vegan friendly. All you need for this recipe is:

  • knife shaved noodles or thin ramen noodles
  • few stalks of spring onion (green and white parts)
  • ginger
  • light & dark soy sauces
  • rice vinegar or shaoxing wine (optional)
  • sichuan pepper (optional)

Can I make this gluten free?

Absolutely! Simply choose a gluten free soy sauce and use gluten free rice noodles. I used Knife Shaved noodles (containing gluten).
