Preparation

Step 1

Bring the water to a boil in a large pot, and add the noodles. Cook for approximately 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain immediately and rinse it under cold water. Mix the noodles with 1 tablespoon of the oil, and set it aside.

Place the remaining 2 tablespoon of oil in a wok and cook over medium-high heat. Stir-fry the crushed garlic and shallots until the color becomes yellow or brown, or the aroma comes out. Add the chicken/beef/pork and shrimp, stir-fry for approximately 2 minutes. Add the soy sauce, scallions, baby bok choy, salt and pepper, stir-fry it for another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the noodles and stir it well. Last, add the sweet soy sauce. Mix well so that all the ingredients will be evenly distributed.

Place the fried egg noodles on a platter and sprinkle the top with deep fried shallots. Serve hot or at room temperature.
