This easy to make 30 Minute Ginger Soy Noodles might just be the weeknight dinner saviour we were looking for. Made using store-bought Asian pantry staples + tahini (sesame seed paste). The inspiration to create this dish from the ginger and soy sauce accompaniment we usually get with dumplings. Umami and ultra yum! I topped this bowl with some mushrooms and bok choi, you could use any meat/veg you have – super forgiving.
