Heat and season the wok. Add the shrimp and grill for 90 seconds. Add the eggs. When the eggs are not quite finished, add the noodles, sugar, peanuts, turnip, and paprika. Stir fry for approximately 45 seconds or until all ingredients are mixed together and the noodles are wilted.

Add the fish sauce, oyster sauce, and vinegar. Follow with the bean sprouts, green onions, and red chili. Stir fry quickly to ensure everything is mixed together. If you prefer a wet noodle dish, deglaze with 4-5 tablespoons of water or stock. For firmer, drier noodles, deglaze with only 1 or 2 tablespoons of water or stock.
