Ingredients
  

For the Noodles

  • 1/2 tbsp Shaoxing Wine Dry sherry works as a substitute.

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Begin by bringing a pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the fresh Hong Kong pan fried noodles and let them blanch for 30 seconds. Drain in a colander and shake off excess water.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the light soy sauce, vegetarian oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and sugar. Stir in about a tablespoon of water until smooth, and set aside.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the drained noodles, tossing them in the oil. Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Lower the heat and pour in the sauce, swirling it around the noodles. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring gently until mostly absorbed.
  5. Push the noodles to one side, add remaining tablespoon of oil, and toss in the green onions and bean sprouts. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until slightly softened.
  6. Toss everything together in the skillet, mix well, and transfer to plates. Optionally, drizzle homemade chili oil on top before serving.
