Ingredients

  • 300 g (10 ½ oz) fresh wide rice noodles or 200 g (7 oz) dried wide rice noodles
  • 60 ml (2 fl oz/ ¼ cup) soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons vegan oyster sauce
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 king oyster mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 120 ml (4 fl oz) canola (rapeseed) oil
  • 1 red shallot thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves chopped
  • 100 g (3 ½ oz) bean sprouts
  • 100 g (3 ½ oz) yellow or green
  • Chinese chives cut into 3 cm (1¼ in) lengths
  • 1 spring onion (scallion), cut into 3 cm (1¼ in) lengths

Instructions

  • If you are using dried noodles, soak them first in lukewarm water for 30 minutes.
  • Combine 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of the vegan oyster sauce and the salt in a bowl and add the mushrooms. Leave to marinate for 15 minutes.
  • In another bowl, mix together the remaining soy sauce and vegan oyster sauce, the dark soy sauce and the sugar.
  • Heat a wok over a medium–high heat and, once hot, add half of the oil. Drain any marinade that the mushrooms have not absorbed and add the mushroom to the wok. Pan-fry until a bit brown and cooked on both sides, then remove.
  • Switch to the highest heat and add the rest of the oil, the shallot and garlic and stir-fry for 15 seconds. Add the mushroom slices and stir for 15 seconds, then add the drained noodles and stir for 30 seconds to 1 minute until the noodles are a bit softer. Then add the sauce, using chopsticks to quickly mix everything together. Toss the wok and stir constantly, being careful not to break the noodles.
  • When the noodles are almost cooked, add the bean sprouts and stir-fry for 15–30 seconds then add the garlic chives and stir-fry for another 15–30 seconds. Finish with the spring onion and serve.
