  2. Trim hard stem from tender leaves by taking point of knife to center of the stem where the leaves meet stem and make an upside down V-shaped cut down to end of stem (piece should be a triangle basically) and remove the white stem piece. Cut stems into 1/2 inch pieces. Tear or cut leaves into bite sized pieces and add to bowl with green onion tops.

  2. Add remaining tablespoon oil to pan and cook garlic for 30 seconds. Add the white parts of the green onions, cabbage stems, snow peas and carrots and quickly toss and cook for 3 minutes.
  3. Add the drained noodles and pour Sauce mixture over all. Quickly stir fry, tossing to coat and heat noodles.
