If you’re a noodle fan & you’ve got some leftover pork from a homemade roast dinner then this is the dish for you!

Here, we’re chopping up a generous amount of leftover roast pork, frying it until it’s nice & crispy, glazing it with a homemade teriyaki sauce then tossing through some udon noodles. To finish our pork noodles, we’re going to be topping them with a crispy fried egg & a sprinkle of sliced spring onions & toasted sesame seeds.

The great thing about these noodles is that you can swap the meat out for pretty much whatever you like. Some roast chicken, lamb or beef would work well or you could even use a pan roasted duck breast. They’re super tasty & take very little time to make!

What You’ll Need

• Leftover Roast Pork – I used leftovers from my slow roasted pork shoulder but pork belly would work just as well. Leftover roast chicken, beef or lamb would also work!
• Noodles – We’re using thick udon noodles for this dish. I like to use the fresh udon noodles that you can buy from the supermarket as these cook in a matter of minutes, however dried udon noodles can be used instead.
• Teriyaki Sauce – We’re making our own teriyaki sauce but feel free to use a ready made one if you’d prefer. If you’re making your own teriyaki, you’ll need dark soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic & ginger.
• Butter – Stirring some butter through our sauce gives it a richer flavour & glossy finish. Unsalted butter is best as the teriyaki won’t need any extra salt.
• Eggs – I topped my noodles with a crispy fried egg but you could poach or boil your’s instead if you like.
• Toppings – My noodles were topped with some thinly sliced spring onions & a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.

Homemade Teriyaki Sauce

We’re making a quick, homemade teriyaki sauce to glaze & coat the crispy roast pork & udon noodles. This teriyaki sauce is a bit thinner than the ready made stuff because we want it to reduce into a sticky glaze in the pan with the pork. However, you could use a ready made sauce instead & thin it out with a splash of the noodle cooking water.

To make our homemade teriyaki sauce, we mix dark soy sauce with honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar & sesame oil. Then when before we add the teriyaki to the crispy pork, we quickly fry off some grated fresh ginger & garlic.

Leftover Roast Pork Noodles

These roast pork noodles come together in no time at all! Here we roughly chop up some leftover roast pork (I used shoulder but belly would work as well), fry it in a pan until crispy, add in some grated garlic, ginger & our homemade teriyaki sauce then cook until glazed & sticky. To finish, we toss through some udon noodles, a splash of noodle cooking water & a good chunk of butter then serve with a crispy fried egg, sliced spring onions & a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.

How To Cook Crispy Fried Eggs

You can’t beat a fried egg! And I mean a proper fried egg that’s been cooked in plenty of fat. We’re talking fried eggs with crispy whites & a perfectly runny yolk! These are the perfect topping for our sticky teriyaki noodles as the crisp texture contrasts the soft noodles & the runny yolk adds extra richness.

To cook crispy fried eggs, we add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil into a large frying pan then set it over a medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering (not smoking!), we crack an egg into a ramekin then carefully add into the pan. Now we cook the egg, basting the whites with the hot oil, until it’s crisp & golden with a perfectly runny yolk. The total cooking time will be around 2 minutes.
