Step 6

Add all of the vegetables except the green onions and stir fry until the vegetables are just softened, about 2 to 3 minutes. Drizzle a little more oil over the veggies if needed.

Step 7

Add the shrimps, udon noodles, and green onions and give everything a few tosses to combine. Pour the prepared sauce over everything and stir fry until everything is evenly coated and even in color.

Serve immediately and if you'd like, top the shrimp yaki udon with some furikake and your desired amount of kewpie mayo to add some creaminess. Stir to combine and enjoy!
