Notes

Choose fresh noodles. Fresh egg noodles are the best for texture and flavor.
Prep ingredients in advance. Mise en place is crucial for a foolproof and seamless cook. Have all of your ingredients measured and next to you before you turn on the stove.
Use a hot wok. Make sure the wok is hot before you add oil and begin cooking. High heat adds a sear and smoky flavor to create the delicious pan fried noodles flavor.
If adding protein: if you’d like to add protein cook them first and remove them from the wok before cooking the noodles. Then toss the protein back in at the end to mix.
Taste to adjust: this is your stir fried noodles recipe, taste and adjust the seasoning with extra soy sauce, sugar, or seasonings if needed.
