Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 340 g Fresh yakisoba noodles or chow mein noodles
  • 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 2 cup Shredded cabbage
  • 1 cup Shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup Sliced celery
  • 3 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp Sesame oil
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic powder

Method
 

  1. Whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and garlic powder in a small bowl and set aside for 1 minute.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat for 1 minute until shimmering.
  3. Add cabbage, carrots, and celery, and stir-fry for 3 minutes until softened but still crisp.
  4. Add the noodles and sauce mixture, tossing constantly for 4 minutes until noodles are heated through and coated evenly.
  5. Remove from heat and let rest for 1 minute before serving so the noodles absorb the sauce without turning soggy.
