Stir Fry Noodles from Ohana by Janel Adani

I mentioned when I posted the recipe for ‘Ohana bread pudding, how much my family loves ‘Ohana. We love both breakfast and dinner here. When there is a birthday or holiday celebration coming up, someone in the family is always asking to go here. The food is just soooooo good!
One of my favorite things to eat, besides the bread pudding, is the big side platter they bring out before the giant skewers of food come out. It is loaded up with delicious dumplings, a scrumptious salad, sticky chicken wings, and these yummy stir fry noodles. They have a sticky sweet taste that just has you going back for more and more. I am more of a side dish eater than a meat eater, so I can eat this all night long. All of my kids love it too. My little guy is a pretty picky eater, but he will go to town on these noodles and the salad.
I found this recipe many years ago and tried it out. Sometimes copycat recipes don’t come out like the original, but I have to say, this came out pretty darn close! Typing this right now is making my mouth water and I’m thinking I may need to take a trip to the grocery store and whip this up for dinner soon! I hope you like it as much as me. Enjoy!
