Instructions
Fry the noodles
- In a large wok, add oil until it covers 1-2 inches of the wok (about 8 cups or enough to fully submerge the noodles). Turn the heat to med-high.
- Using your fingers, separate the noodles to prevent them from sticking together and cooking unevenly. Once the oil is hot, and reaches 375°F, drop 8 oz of noodles into the wok. Use chopsticks or tongs to spread the noodles evenly around to form a circle.
- Fry for 7-10 minutes or until crispy. Repeat this for the remaining noodles. Set it aside for later.
Make the sauce
- In a small bowl, whisk together garlic, ginger, chicken broth, Chinese rice wine, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and cornstarch. Set this aside for later.
Stir fry the seafood and vegetables
- In a large wok, on medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Fry the shrimp and scallops until no longer opaque. Remove it to a plate and set it aside.
- Add all the vegetables (onion, carrots, celery, shiitake mushrooms, baby bok choy, and baby corn) and stir fry for 2 minutes.
- Pour in the sauce. Let it simmer for 5 minutes, occasionally stirring. Then, stir in the shrimp and scallops. Once the sauce has thickened, and the vegetables are cooked, turn off the heat.
- When ready to serve, pour the stir-fried vegetables and seafood over the crispy noodles.
Notes
- Prep all the ingredients before starting. It will help speed up and simplify the cooking process.
- Keep the oil between 370-380°F. If the oil is not hot enough, the noodles will take longer to cook and become soggy or lose moisture and harden. If the oil is too hot, it will brown quickly and burn.
- If you're using dried shelf-stable noodles and need to boil them, let them dry for at least an hour before frying. This will minimize the oil spattering.
