Yakisoba Sauce
Prepare Ingredients: Cut onion, napa cabbage, and atsuage into thin strips.
Prepare Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, chuno sauce, and sake.
Stir-fry Vegetables: Heat a large pan over medium heat, add the sesame oil, then stir-fry the onion, napa cabbage, and moyashi until tender. Add 1 tablespoon of sauce, stir-fry for another minute, and set aside.
Stir-fry Atsuage: Season the atsuage strips with a little salt, then add them to the same pan and cook until browned on all sides. Add 1 tablespoon of sauce, stir-fry for another minute, and set aside.
Stir-fry Yakisoba Noodles: Place the yakisoba noodles in the pan and gently stir to loosen them as they heat. When they start to brown, add the remaining sauce and stir-fry until evenly coated and heated through.
