Ingredients
  

  • Noodles: About half a packet that’s 8 oz (227g)
  • Eggs: Two of them large-sized
  • Broccoli: A handful roughly 1 cup (92g), chopped
  • Bell Peppers the colorful ones: A cup’s worth (149g), thinly sliced
  • Carrots: Half a cup 64g, cut into those fancy thin strips
  • Garlic: Three cloves finely chopped. The more, the merrier.
  • Soy Sauce: Couple of tablespoons 30ml
  • Sesame Oil: A tablespoon 15ml, for that authentic taste
  • Vegetable Oil: One tablespoon 15ml, any brand works
  • Ginger: A piece around an inch (2.5 cm), finely chopped
  • Green Onions: Two stems chopped
  • Salt and Pepper: Sprinkle according to your taste

Method
 

  1. Kick things off with boiling water for the noodles. When bubbly, pop them in and let them dance till they’re al dente, about 8-10 minutes.
  2. Drain those noodles, give them a shake and set them aside.
  3. Whisk those eggs with some salt and pepper. Show them who’s boss.
  4. Grab that wok or a big pan and get the vegetable oil sizzling.
  5. Add the eggs. Scramble ‘em till they’re fluffy. Scoop ‘em out.
  6. Still using the wok, add a splash of sesame oil.
  7. Throw in the garlic and ginger. Oh, the aroma!
  8. Now, bring in the broccoli, bell peppers, and carrots. Stir-fry until they’re bright and slightly soft, around 5-7 minutes.
  9. Slide your veggies to one side, pour in the soy sauce, then mix it all up.
  10. Here come the noodles! And those scrambled eggs! Mix it up one more time.
  11. Sprinkle those green onions and give it a gentle toss.
  12. Taste test! Need more seasoning? You decide!
