Instructions

  1. Bring 1 liter of water to a boil with a drizzle of olive oil, then add 100 g dry egg noodles (or 150 g fresh).
  2. Turn off the heat, loosen the noodles with chopsticks and let them soak: about 3-5 minutes for dry noodles, 2-3 minutes for fresh, depending on thickness.
  3. Drain the noodles and spread them on a rack for at least 10 minutes to let excess moisture evaporate.
  4. Cut the noodles into 6-inch pieces with scissors.
  5. Julienne 40 g bean sprouts, 40 g carrot, 40 g garlic chives, 1/4 onion and 1 clove garlic.
  6. In a bowl, mix 1 tbsp light soy sauce, 1 tsp dark soy sauce, 1 tsp oyster sauce and 1/4 tsp sugar.
  7. Heat the wok over high heat until smoking hot, add 2 tbsp oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Add the noodles and fluff with two pairs of chopsticks for a couple of minutes.
  8. Add the vegetables, pour in the sauce in batches and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and serve on a plate.
