1-First, get your prep done by mincing or grating the garlic and finely chopping the green onions, keeping the whites and greens separate.

2-Next, boil the noodles based on the package instructions, but subtract one minute for that perfect al dente texture, then drain and set them aside.

3-While the noodles cook, in a small pot over medium-low heat, combine the garlic, neutral oil, chili flakes, vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce, stirring and cooking for about 3 minutes to blend everything without burning.

4-Once that’s ready, turn off the heat and mix in the green onion whites, toasted sesame oil, and sesame seeds.

5-Add the cooked noodles back into the pot with the chili oil sauce and stir well to coat every strand.

6-Finally, garnish with the green onion greens and serve right away for the best flavor.
