Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Cook noodles in salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve noodle cooking water before draining.
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and add sliced garlic. Cook slowly until the garlic becomes pale golden and fragrant.
Add oyster sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and optional turmeric powder. Stir until the sauce becomes aromatic and the sugar dissolves.
Add chopped scallions and cook briefly until softened.
Reduce heat and add cooked noodles, Parmesan cheese, and reserved noodle water. Toss until the sauce creates a glossy coating around every noodle strand.
Adjust the sauce consistency with additional noodle water if needed.
Serve Asian garlic noodles immediately with seafood, vegetables, tofu, fried egg, or chili sauce.

Notes

Slice garlic instead of mincing because sliced garlic caramelizes more evenly and creates flavorful golden pieces. Keep heat moderate when cooking garlic because burnt garlic creates bitterness. Reserve noodle cooking water because starch helps the sauce cling to the noodles. Use freshly grated Parmesan because it melts more smoothly into the sauce. Serve immediately because the noodles lose their glossy texture as they cool.
