Ingredients

  • oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic
  • 4 ounces dried noodles, soaked
  • 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons fish sauce
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • powdered dried shrimp
  • peanuts (chopped)
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 Tablespoon preserved vegetables (Chinese pickles)
  • 2 scallion ("inchers")

Instructions

  • Beat one egg and add 1 T powdered dried shrimp, 1 T chopped peanuts.
  • Heat oil in wok and add garlic and cook until browned. Add egg and cook a few seconds.
  • Add noodles, stir well. Add juice, fish sauce, sugar, 1 T peanuts, 1 T dried shrimp powder, chili, preserved veggies, beansprouts, scallions. STIR WELL.
  • Turn onto plate and scatter remaining peanuts, shrimp, more beansprouts.

Notes

  • The note card scratches out 2 T of powdered shrimp and 2 T peanuts to use only 1 T each, but the recipe itself calls for 2 T of each.  My guess is that the correction in the ingredient list was made to keep people from using too much in the first stage.
  • The final garnish ingredient isn't clear.
