Ingredients

For 4 servings

Instructions

  1. Cook egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and toss with sesame oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large wok over high heat. Add julienned carrots and shredded cabbage. Stir-fry for 3 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic and bean sprouts. Stir-fry for 1 minute.
  4. Add the cooked noodles and soy sauce. Toss everything together over high heat for 2-3 minutes until the noodles are slightly charred in spots.
  5. Serve immediately while hot.

Cook’s notes

Cook the noodles just until tender and drain them well, because they cook a little more in the wok. Add any sliced vegetables you have, such as bell pepper or mushrooms, with the cabbage. A fried egg or some tofu turns it into a complete meal.
