Ingredients
 
 

  • Bowl of boiled egg noodles200 grams egg noodles - Fresh or dried
  • pork mince300 grams ground pork (minced pork) - Preferably lean
  • Vegetable oil2 tablespoons vegetable oil - For stir-frying
  • Carrot vegetable with leaves1 cup carrot - Sliced thinly
  • fresh cabbage1 cup cabbage - Shredded
  • Ripe yellow onion on a white background1 medium onion - Sliced finely
  • soy sauce bottles2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • Spoon with thick brown oyster sauce close up1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • sesame oil1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • garlic3 cloves garlic - Minced
  • ginger1 teaspoon ginger - Grated
  • green onion, spring onion1 bunch spring onions - Chopped

Instructions
 

  • Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to prevent sticking. Set aside.
  • In a large wok or skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat (180°C / 356°F). Add the pork mince and stir-fry until browned, about 5 minutes. Use a spatula to break apart any clumps.
  • Push the pork mince to the side of the wok. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger to the center, and sauté until the onion is translucent and fragrant, around 3 minutes.
  • Add the carrots and cabbage to the wok, stir-frying until the vegetables are just tender, about 4 minutes. The cabbage should still have a slight crunch.
  • Return the cooked noodles to the wok, along with the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Toss everything together until well combined and heated through, about 2 minutes.
  • Garnish with spring onions before serving. Mix well to incorporate the flavors.

Notes

For a twist, consider adding a dash of chili flakes for some heat, or substituting the pork mince with chicken mince for a different flavor profile.
