    ¼
  • Cabbage
    3 c
  • Garlic Cloves
    3
  • Green Onion

    green parts only

    1 bunch
  • Dark Soy Sauce
    2 tbsp
  • Soy Sauce
    2 tbsp
  • Brown Sugar
    2 tbsp
  • Water
    1 tbsp
  • Sesame Oil
    1 tsp
  • Corn Starch
    1 tbsp
  • White Pepper
    ¼ tsp
  • Oyster Sauce
    1 tbsp

Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente, drain, and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, whisk together dark soy sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, water, sesame oil, cornstarch, white pepper, and oyster sauce until smooth. This sauce will give the dish its signature savory and slightly sweet flavor.

  3. 3

    Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of oil, then sauté diced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add sliced carrots, yellow onions, and cabbage, stirring frequently for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  4. 4

    Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the prepared sauce over the noodles and vegetables, tossing well to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and adhere to everything.

  5. 5

    Stir in the green onion greens and cook for another 30 seconds. Remove from heat and serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
