Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Chinese egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Ginger
- 200 grams Bok choy (or other Asian greens)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Chili flakes
- 2 sliced Scallions (green onions)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the Chinese egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water, then toss with 1 tablespoon of sesame oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
Wash the bok choy (or other greens) and chop into bite-sized pieces. Separate the stems from the leafy parts as they will cook at different rates.
In a large wok or skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the bok choy stems to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes. Then, add the leafy greens and stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until wilted.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, chili flakes, and 2 tablespoons of water. Pour the sauce over the greens and toss to coat evenly.
Add the cooked noodles to the wok and gently toss with the greens and sauce until the noodles are heated through and well-coated, about 2 minutes.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over the noodles and toss once more.
Sprinkle the dish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy!
