    Begin by boiling a pot of water. Once boiling, add the udon noodles and cook for 8-10 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.

    In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

    Add the cabbage (cut into strips) and carrot (julienned). Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they soften.

    Add the cooked udon noodles to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables.

    In a small bowl, mix the miso paste and soy sauce with a splash of water to create a smooth sauce. Pour this over the noodles and vegetables, tossing everything to coat evenly.
