Ingredients
- 7 oz dried wide flat rice noodle or 16 oz/450 g fresh rice noodles
- ½ lb jumbo shrimp peeled & deveined
- 2 cups gai-lan roughly chopped (aka Chinese broccoli)
- 2 large eggs beaten
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil or any neutral oil
Noodle Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce or vegetarian stir-fry sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon regular soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar or rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoon fish sauce
- 2 teaspoon white granulated sugar or cane sugar
- 2.5 tablespoon water cold
Instructions
- In a large bowl with your dried rice noodles, pour boiling hot water over top to cover the noodles. Soak until limp but firm (about 3-4 minutes), strain the noodles. Separate noodles if they're stuck together. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine noodle sauce ingredients and set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large pan on medium heat. Fry minced garlic for 10 seconds until fragrant.
- Toss in shrimp and fry on both sides, just until 60% cooked. Then push everything to the side of the pan.
- Increase to medium-high heat and into the empty space of the wok, add remaining vegetable oil. Pour beaten eggs into the empty space and scramble them. Then toss with the shrimp.
- Toss in gai-lan, rice noodles and noodle sauce and stir-fry until greens have wilted and noodles are soft but chewy or al dente. Perform a taste test of the noodles and if they need more time, stir fry for another 1-2 minutes and feel free to add 1-2 tablespoon water. Remove off heat and enjoy!
