Instructions
- Pour water into a pot and put over a high flame. Cook the noodles or pasta as per instruction which can be read at the back of the packaging.
- Temper the soy sauce with water, observing a 1:1 ratio and set aside.
- Get your skillet and put over a medium-high heat, and then pour a small amount of oil. Quickly stir-fry the carrots, zucchini, onions, garlic, ginger and bell pepper. Cook them until they are tender but still crunchy.
- If you haven’t drained your pasta yet, do so and transfer into the skillet. If you have left over cooked meat like chicken or beef, shred it and put with vegetables.
- Pour the tempered soy sauce into the skillet. In one pound of noodles or pasta, you must put 1/3 cup of soy sauce. Toss the pasta, vegetables and meat in soy sauce and make sure everything is evenly coated and cooked.
- Transfer everything in a platter and top it with crushed peanuts, stir-fried bean sprouts and scallions.
