Step 1

Prepare your noodles according to package instructions.

Step 2

While your noodles are cooking, heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large sauté pan over high heat. Cook the ground pork, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the pork and set aside.

Step 3

Add the shiitakes and shallots and cook until they begin to turn golden brown, about 5 minutes. Return the pork to the pan. Add the sake, wait a minute while the alcohol loosens the nice pork drippings on the pan, then add the soy sauce. Let everything simmer for another minute. Salt and pepper to taste, then remove from the pan.

Step 4

Serve pork and mushrooms over drained noodles, and garnish with scallions.
