Sizzling Sambal Noodles

Noodles, sambal, sizzle! For this searing hot recipe, we took inspiration from the sizzling hot oil sauces popularly used in Chinese noodle dishes like biang biang mian and cumin lamb noodles, and made it our own with a splash of sambal. All you really need is some cooked noodles, sambal, and a couple of aromatic ingredients like garlic, scallions, and soy sauce. Just add just two spoonfuls of hot oil onto the aromats to crisp them up and draw out their flavor, then toss everything together to coat the noodles with a lip-smacking sambal savoriness.

Pour the neutral oil into a small pot, and heat it over medium heat. The oil is hot enough and ready when a wooden chopstick dipped into it starts to bubble.
