Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cook the noodles according to package directions until al dente, about 4-6 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water; set aside.
  2. In a large skillet or wok, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add cubed butternut squash and sauté for 8-10 minutes until tender and caramelized.
  3. Whisk together soy sauce or tamari, maple syrup or brown sugar, rice vinegar, red pepper flakes, cornstarch, and water in a mixing bowl.
  4. Add remaining oil to the skillet with minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Then, return squash, noodles, and half of green onions, and toss gently.
  5. Pour sauce over everything, toss vigorously for 1-2 minutes to thicken and ensure sauce coats noodles and vegetables.
  6. Serve the dish, garnishing with remaining green onions and sesame seeds.
