-------- ------------ --------------------------------
vegetable for frying
1 clove garlic, minced
5 shallots, thinly sliced
1 egg, beaten
2 ounces (about 1/3 cup) each diced boneless chicken and pork
2 ounces peeled raw medium shrimp
1/4 cup bean sprouts
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 fresh hot red pepper, thinly sliced diagonally
3 scallions, cut in 1" lengths
1/2 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
6 ounces thin round egg noodles, cooked
pinch sea salt
sprigs of cilantro for garnish


Heat a wok, add a little oil and when very hot, add the garlic and shallots. Stir-fry rapidly for about 30 seconds. Add egg and stir for about 30 seconds. Add chicken and pork and stir until seared. Add shrimp, bean sprouts, green pepper, chili, and scallions continuing to stir-fry until the shrimp are just firm. Add the sesame oil and fish sauce.

Moisten the noodles with warm water to prevent them from sticking together, then throw them in batches into wok with a pinch of salt, stirring and tossing to combine the ingredients thoroughly. When the noodles are hot, serve immediately, with sprigs of fresh cilantro on top.
