Bring 3 quarts of water to boil in a large pot. In a 2nd pot or via another mechanism, steam your broccoli florets for 3-5 minutes until they are soft but not mushy or fully cooked and set them aside. While they steam, cut your bell peppers into thin strips and top & tail your green beans. In a wok or large non-stick skillet, heat your oil on high and once it is smoking drop in your green beans and bell peppers. Keep tossing the vegetables on high eat with an aim to char the outsides but not overcook them - about 3-4 minutes.

Once done, turn off the heat and add in your broccoli, garlic, and chili pepper flakes and let them all steam together staying warm in the skillet or wok.

Your water should be boiling now, so drop in your udon noodles and cook for the time required on the packaging. Once done, strain and rinse with cold water to stop them from cooking. Mease out the correct amount of noodles and veggies into 4 bowls for serving. In the pot used to make the noodles, add one serving at a time to the pot along with that person's sauce of choice and turn on high heat to stir fry together to incorporate. Once piping hot and mixed, add back to that person's empty bowl and repeat for the rest of the servings.
