Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 500 g fresh wide rice noodles
- 2 eggs (for scrambled eggs)
- 20 g green onions
- 20 g minced garlic
- 20 g shiitake mushrooms (sliced, I prefer using fresh shiitake mushrooms, so there's no need to rehydrate them.)
- 100 g vegetables
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil (with one reserved for scrambled eggs and the other for chow fun. I prefer using peanut oil for this recipe.)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 150 g shrimp
- 20 g green onions (garnish)
Instructions
- 1
Gently toss and separate the wide rice noodles in a bowl or plate. This makes it easier to cook for later during the stir-frying step.

Prepare the ingredients by beating the eggs and chopping the vegetables and other flavoring ingredients. If using uncooked shrimp, prepare the shrimp by cleaning and cooking it in the pan.
- 3
Heat a pan with oil and cook the 2 beaten eggs. Cook until you get chunks of scrambled eggs and set aside.
- 4
Heat the pan with oil again and cook the green onions and garlic.
- 5
Add chopped shiitake mushrooms and stir-fry.

Add your preferred vegetables and continue tossing and stir-frying.
