Instructions

  1. Step 1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook 7 oz dry egg noodles for 4-5 minutes until just tender. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Step 3: Add 1 medium julienned carrot and 1 medium thinly sliced red bell pepper to the wok, stir-frying for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  4. Step 4: Add the drained noodles to the wok along with 3 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tsp sesame oil. Toss everything together and stir-fry for another 2 minutes until the noodles are evenly coated and heated through.
  5. Step 5: Remove from heat and garnish with 2 sliced green onions and 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds before serving.
