It's not too difficult to make, but take care to not get distracted, as it's very easy to mess up if you do. Ingredients 6 oz. thin egg noodles, cooked al dente and cooled to room temperature 1 1/2 C shredded cabbage 3/4 C broccoli stems or heads, cut into strips 1 green bell pepper, cut into strips 1 medium yellow onion, diced or cut into strips 1/4 C cooking oil, such as canola or peanut 3 tbsp hoisin sauce 2 tbsp chili paste or 2 crushed Thai chilis 1 tbsp fish sauce 1 tbsp soy sauce Directions Fill wok with 1/4C water, cabbage, and broccoli and put on high heat. Cover with a lid. Once the water begins to boil, steam for 5 minutes, adding more water if needed. Add the bell pepper and steam for another 3 minutes. Remove the lid and let the remaining water evaporate, then set the steamed vegetables aside. Heat oil in wok over high heat and add the onion. Fry, stirring occasionally, until the onion just barely begins to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Add the steamed vegetables and continue frying, stirring more often, for another 3 minutes. Add in the noodles and begin stirring constantly (the noodles are prone to sticking and burning if you don't). Fry for 2 more minutes, then add in the hoisin sauce, chili paste, fish sauce, and soy sauce. Toss to coat well and fry for another minute before removing from heat and stirring. Notes: Using cooled noodles helps prevent them from clumping in the wok (much like how cold rice is used in making fried rice). To prevent them from clumping as they cool, toss them with a bit of rice vinegar (or oil if you don't care about fat content). You can make this recipe in a skillet - just make sure to lower the temperature to medium instead of high. ​ My dog begging for noodles submitted by /u/greenonionlife [link] [comments]
