👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Prepare the noodles: If using fresh noodles, gently separate them. Pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels. This is crucial for achieving crispiness and preventing oil splattering.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Deep-fry the noodles: Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or deep pot to 180°C (350°F). Carefully add the egg noodles in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 3-5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up. Use tongs to flip them occasionally for even cooking. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. The noodles should sound hollow when tapped.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 3
Prepare the cornstarch slurry: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp cornstarch and 2 tbsp water until smooth. Set aside.
⏱️ 1 minute - 4
Stir-fry aromatics and seafood: Drain most of the frying oil from the wok, leaving about 1-2 tbsp. Heat the wok over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, stir-frying until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the mixed seafood and stir-fry until it's just cooked through and opaque, about 2-3 minutes.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 5
Add vegetables and sauce: Add the mixed vegetables (except for bean sprouts, if using) to the wok. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are tender-crisp. Pour in the oyster sauce, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Stir well to combine.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 6
Thicken the sauce: Give the cornstarch slurry a quick stir, then pour it into the wok. Stir continuously until the sauce thickens and coats the seafood and vegetables, about 1-2 minutes. If using bean sprouts, add them now and toss briefly.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 7
Assemble and serve: Arrange the crispy fried noodles on a serving platter. Spoon the hot seafood and vegetable stir-fry mixture over the noodles. Garnish with optional cilantro, scallions, or chili flakes if desired. Serve immediately to enjoy the crispy texture.
