Steps:

Cook the noodles in large pot of boiling water, following instructions on the packet.
Heat the oil in a wok or very large pan and stir fry the ginger and garlic for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat until golden.
Drain the noodles and set them aside add the bamboo shoots to the wok, increase the heat to high and stir fry for a further 5 minutes.
stir in the sauces, sesame oil, sugar and lime juice.

Sometimes I add a little bit of sweet chili sauce when I want it sweeter or for another variation you can add chicken or shrimp for a full meal.
