Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Noodles — Cook the noodles until they are al dente to ensure they don't become mushy when stir-fried.
  • Soy sauce — Use low-sodium soy sauce if you prefer to reduce the overall sodium content of the dish.
  • Oyster sauce — If you have a shellfish allergy, you can substitute oyster sauce with vegetarian oyster sauce or hoisin sauce.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a spicier kick, add a teaspoon of chili sauce or red pepper flakes to the sauce mixture.
  • Customize the vegetables according to your preference or seasonal availability.
  • To make it vegetarian, substitute the chicken or beef with tofu or tempeh.
  • Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving for a tangy twist.
  • Double the sauce ingredients if you prefer a saucier dish.
