おいしい Yakisoba!!

So you're in Japan. There's ten billion new things for you to see and not enough time in the day to see them all. But before you can even start on your epic adventure you're probably paralyzed with hunger. So if you're like me and a cheap ass then you can try to cook yourself some delicious foods. Because let's be honest...bento can get damn expensive after a few days. So here's my sure fire guide to cooking in Japan. Today we'll be cooking YAKISOBA.

What you'll need:
Carrots
Broccoli 
Negi Onion
Garlic
Yakisoba Noodles
Worcestershire sauce/Tonkatsu sauce
Thinly sliced Pork

Prep Time: 5-10 minutes
Cook Time: 8-10 minutes


First we need a knife and a cutting board, because unless your hands are blades you'll have some trouble

Carrots.

Cut those carrots with your newly acquired samurai sword.

Brock-oli

Delicious green afros.

Next you need that oh so iconic Negi (green onion).

Now sharpen and create a spear. You're ready to start hunting Boars.

All set.

Bean sprouts are essential.

Don't forget the noodles.

 Our yakisoba Worcestershire sauce. Made from real bull dogs.

Noodles and some thinly sliced pork. You know from that boar we slayed earlier with our Negi spear? 

 Fry it up. Add the vegetables and sauce and a touch of garlic.

I added a this fried potato to the mix. 

Bean sprouts are near the end to keep their crunch.

Annnnd you're done. Delicious Yakisoba. おいしい!!!
