Ingredients

  • 1 pound Wide Rice Noodles (Kway Teow)
  • 1/2 pound Shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 4 oz Chinese Sausage (Lap Cheong), sliced
  • 2 Eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups Bean Sprouts
  • 1/2 cup Chinese Chives (Kucai), chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons Coconut Aminos
  • 1 tablespoon Fish Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Chili Paste (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil

Instructions

  1. 1Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large wok or 12-inch skillet over high heat until shimmering, about 350°F (175°C).
  2. 2Add the 3 cloves of minced garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  3. 3Add the 1/2 pound of shrimp and 4 oz of Chinese sausage to the wok. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and opaque and the sausage is lightly browned.
  4. 4Push the shrimp and sausage to one side of the wok. Pour the 2 beaten eggs into the empty space and scramble them lightly until just set, about 1 minute.
  5. 5Add the 1 pound of Wide Rice Noodles, 3 tablespoons of coconut aminos, 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, and 1 teaspoon of chili paste (if using) to the wok. Stir-fry everything together for 3-4 minutes, until the noodles are heated through and well-coated with the sauce.
  6. 6Add the 2 cups of bean sprouts and 1/2 cup of chopped Chinese chives to the wok. Stir-fry for 1 more minute, until the bean sprouts are slightly tender-crisp and the chives are wilted.
  7. 7Serve the Char Kway Teow immediately.
