Trader Joe's Squiggly Knife Cut Noodles dressed in a brown sauce with red chopsticks.

Spicy Garlic Knife Cut Noodles

These spicy garlic knife cut noodles are my favorite way to upgrade Trader Joe’s new Squiggly Noodles. Inspired by the viral tiktok ramen upgrade, this version is slightly sweet, garlicky, spicy, and full of tingly umami goodness!

Instructions
 

  • Bring 6 cups of water to a boil and add the two packs of Knife Cut Noodles. Cook for 4 minutes but do not strain.
  • While the noodles are cooking, add soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic cloves, Sichuan chili crisp, and scallions to a large bowl and whisk together.
  • Once the noodles are done, add them to the sauce bowl straight from the boiling water, allowing the excess water to drip off only slightly. Toss the noodles with the sauce.
  • Finish with toasted sesame seeds, lime juice and a squirt of sriracha for more heat.
