Cook the Udon Noodles: In a large pot of boiling water, add the udon noodles. Cook according to package instructions (usually about 2-3 minutes for fresh noodles) until they are tender but still chewy. Drain and set aside.

      Combine Noodles and Sauce: Add the cooked udon noodles to the bowl with the sauce. Toss the noodles thoroughly to ensure they are evenly coated with the chili oil mixture.

        Garnish: Sprinkle the sliced spring onion and toasted sesame seeds over the noodles. If desired, add fresh cilantro or parsley for an added touch of freshness.

          Serve: Divide the chili oil udon noodles into bowls and serve immediately while warm. Adjust the amount of chili oil based on your preference for spiciness.
