- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 medium Onion, thinly sliced
- 1 large Carrot, julienned
- 1 large Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Zucchini, julienned

Instructions
Soak the glass noodles in warm water for 10 minutes or until softened. Drain and set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the cooking oil and let it heat up for a few seconds.
Add the minced garlic and sliced onion to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until aromatic and translucent.
Add the julienned carrot, red bell pepper, zucchini, and shiitake mushrooms. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the drained glass noodles to the other side.
Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil over the noodles. Toss everything together until the noodles are evenly coated and heated through.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring everything is well combined.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Serve immediately as a standalone meal or as a side dish.
