300g flat rice noodle (rice stick)
1 egg
250g Chinese broccoli (or similar, I used bok choy)
2 cloves garlic, sliced
3 tbsp cooking oil (used roughly in 3rds during cooking)
1 tbsp thick (sweet) soy sauce (look for soy sauce with palm sugar)
dash of fish sauce
1 tbsp rice vinegar
Meat & Marinade
225g pork loin, cut thin & bite sized
1/2 tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
splash (dark) sesame oil

Steps:

Prepare the meat & marinate, and let it sit for 15 to 30mins. Chop up the vegetable (Chinese broccoli) into bite sized chunks, you may want to separate the stems from the leaves to allow you to cook the stems slightly longer. Prepare the garlic. Heat up some water, then soak the noodles until they are just soft. Drain the noodles. Heat up your wok, we'll be cooking on high the whole time. Have your sauces and ingredients ready, this goes pretty fast. With a little oil, stir fry the vegetable with a dash of fish sauce. You may want to start with the stems, then toss in the leafs. When it all looks a bit wilted, dump the wok out into a bowl. Now its time for Noodles. Use a generous amount of oil, toss the drained noodles into the hot wok and stir the noodles to coat them in oil. Add 1 tbsp thick soy and a dash of fish sauce. Mix the sauce into the noodles to give them nice colour, add some more oil if things start to stick badly. Spread the noodles in a thin layer over the wok and let them cook a bit. Dump the wok out into the same bowl as the vegetables. Some oil, garlic and meat go into the hot wok. Stir fry the meat. Once its browned nicely, spread the meat away from the hot part of the wok and crack the egg into that spot. Scramble the egg and mix the meat in. Once the meat and egg are cooked, dump the bowl with the noodles and vegetables back in. Add the rice vinegar and stir things together.Time to eat.
