🌈 【Ingredients】
Core Members: Bean sprouts, Chinese chives, glass noodles (soaked until soft), eggs.
Colorful Add-ins: Shredded carrots, shredded wood ear mushrooms.
Soulful Sauce: 2 tbsp light soy sauce, a little dark soy sauce (for color), 1 tbsp oyster sauce, salt, a pinch of sugar to enhance freshness.
🔥 【Tips for Vibrant Colors, Non-Sticky Noodles, & Crunchy Texture】
1️⃣ Coat noodles with oil first: After cooking/softening the glass noodles, mix them with 1 tbsp of light soy sauce and a little vegetable oil. This prevents them from clumping together during stir-frying and helps them absorb more flavor.
2️⃣ Scramble eggs first, then set aside: Scramble the eggs until just set, then immediately remove them from the pan. Add them back at the very end. This keeps the eggs fluffy and maintains their golden color.
3️⃣ High heat, quick stir-fry, avoid overcooking: Chives and bean sprouts release water very easily. You must stir-fry over high heat the entire time. Cook just until done, then remove from heat immediately to preserve that crisp, refreshing crunch.
✨ 【Step-by-Step】
Prep: Soften the glass noodles, drain, and mix with a little oil. Scramble the eggs and set aside. Briefly blanch the bean sprouts and wood ear mushrooms, then drain.
Aromatics: Heat a little oil in the pan. Add sliced garlic and dried chilies (optional) and stir-fry until fragrant.
Combine & Toss: Add the shredded carrots, wood ear mushrooms, and bean sprouts. Stir-fry quickly over high heat.
Main Event Arrives: Add the glass noodles and scrambled eggs. Pour in the prepared soulful sauce and toss everything together until well combined.
Final Touch: Finally, add the Chinese chive segments. Stir-fry vigorously over high heat for 10 seconds. Turn off the heat. Done!
