Ingredients · per serving
- 1 tbsp Dark soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Light soy sauce
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tbsp Water
- 1 tbsp Vegetarian oyster sauce
- 80 g Pak choi
- 120 g Wide rice noodles
- 80 g Broccoli
- 1 tsp Sugar
Instructions
- Place the rice noodles in a large bowl. Cover with hot tap water and leave 10 minutes until pliable. Drain.
- Make the sauce: in a small bowl whisk together the dark soy, light soy, oyster sauce (or veggie alternative), sugar, and water.
- Cut the broccoli into small florets, halve them so they're flat. Slice the Chinese leaf or pak choi into 2cm wide strips.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a wok over the highest heat.
- Crack in the egg. Scramble quickly, then tip onto a plate.
- Add the remaining oil. Toss in the broccoli — stir-fry 2 minutes until edges char. Add the pak choi or Chinese leaf; stir 1 minute until wilted.
- Add the garlic, stir 20 seconds.
- Add the drained noodles and the sauce. Toss with two spatulas, lifting from the bottom — don't worry if some noodles char on the pan, that's the smoky flavour everyone wants.
- Return the scrambled egg, toss once. Plate and serve. (If feeding adults, set a small bowl of chilli vinegar — fish sauce + lime + chilli — on the side for drizzling.)
