Steam the spinach just until it is wilted. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible, then place the spinach in the container of a food processor along with the rest of the pesto ingredients. Process until the mixture is a coarse puree.
Cook the udon noodles until al dente. Drain and transfer to a serving container. Toss with the pesto and cover.
Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized skillet. Add the garlic and frying pepper and saut� over low heat until the garlic is golden. Add the tomatoes, olives, and black pepper and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. Stir this mixture into the noodles and serve at once, or let cool and serve at room temperature.
This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
