Fried Hokkien Noodles with Udon

Easy stir fry and tasty dish I whipped up as a afternoon snack. The portion is enough for two adults but as a snack I managed to share with three persons.

Recipe

I used a packet 100 gm of udon 

And 2 handfuls of hokkien noodles 

Boil these together in hot water for about 2 minutes and drain. Set aside.

A few Dodo brand fish balls. Each ball sliced into 4

Some slices of Chinese sausages ( can replace with a few prawns)

A few broccoli florets 

Half a small carrot julienned 

2 pcs of garlic minced

Sauce ingredients

1.5 -2 Chinese soup spoon of Tai Hua dark soy sauce 

1.5 - 2 Chinese soup spoon of oyster sauce

1 tsp of sugar

Some white pepper if desired 

Add in some hot water about 100 ml n mix the sauce till sugar dissolves

Method

Heat a wok and add in about 3 tablespoons oil.

You can reduce the oil but I didn't want my noodles to stick on my wok.

When oil is hot, fry the garlic about 15 seconds

Add in the carrots, broccoli first n fry a few seconds

Add in sliced fish ball and sausages n fry a short while

Add in noodles with udon and pour seasoning over 

Mix thoroughly for about a minute

I used my chopsticks to do it 

If the vegetables look cooked, then remove noodles from wok

Serve warm

Suggestion : You can drink a cup of nice Chinese or Japanese tea with this meal.
