Instructions

1. 1.Boil the noodles in salted water. For cooking time, minus 2 minutes from the instructions on the noodle’s packaging (you don’t want to cook the noodles completely as they will continue to cook when stir fried).
2. 2.Rinse the noodles with ice-cold water and shake through a sieve to remove excess water, set aside.
3. 3.Mix sugar, tomato ketchup, soy sauces, juice from one lime, chili flakes and black pepper in a small bowl, stir well and set aside.
4. 4.Cut the spring onions into two parts (green and white), chop them up and set aside, keeping the white and green parts separate.
5. 5.Heat the vegetable oil in a large, non-stick frying pan, add the minced garlic and fry for 2-3 minutes until the garlic turns slightly golden in colour.
6. 6.Add the white parts of the spring onions, stir-fry for 1 minute, then add the shredded oyster mushrooms and cook for another 3-5 minutes.
7. 7.Drop in the noodles, bean sprouts and the green parts of the spring onions and then pour in the sauce mixture.
8. 8.Stir-fry all until the sauce covers all the noodles equally (speed is key here, you don’t want to take more than 3 minutes or the noodles will become too soft).
9. 9.Top with finely chopped coriander (cilantro) and chopped roasted peanuts, serve with lime wedges.
