Basically it just cooked noodles, chopped cabbage, carrots, pork (optional), soy sauce, sesame oil (for flavor not to fry, just alittle), and a pack of seasoning you can get in Japan in the supermarket.
Pour some oil (for frying) into a pan and put on higher heat.
Fry the pork until cooked, add the vegetables and fry till they soften alittle.
Add the noodles, and fry for a couple of minutes, add soy sauce (not alot) and sesame oil and spices. Serve. Very easy.

In the video, no soy sauce was used. They used powdered seasonings and sake.

Powdered seasonings come with the yakisoba noodles in Japan. But in case that is unavailable near you, you can use the Japanese-style Worcestershire sauce. Do NOT use Lee & Perrins for it tastes very different. Sake isn't necessary at all. Black pepper is optional.

Thank you.

I didn't even know there was Japanese style Worchestire.

I wonder if all these things would be at one of the Asian food stores near me, even though they're not Japanese food stores.

No. It's much lighter in texture and less sweet than the tonkatsu sauce.

Ask your co-workers. It's so common that it's just called "ソース" in Japan. Another name is ウスターソース.　The companies that make it usually also make tonkatsu sauce.

Nah. Usutaa Soosu is the Japanese pronunciation of "Worcestershire sauce". I'm pretty sure they keep it in your kitchen even if they don't use it to cook what's on the menu. We can't live without Usutaa Soosu here.
