Stir-fried Noodles with Chicken and Vegetables

Noodles

I use whatever noodles I have available at home, such as egg noodles, ramen noodles, or even spaghetti. You can pick the type that works best for you. Feel free to personalize your stir-fried dish by selecting the noodles that you prefer.

The sauce

The sauce is essential for stir-fried noodles with vegetables and eggs. It brings all the flavors together, balancing sweetness and spiciness. It coats the ingredients, creating a delicious blend.

Corn starch is important in the sauce for stir-fried noodles with vegetables and eggs. It helps thicken the sauce, giving it a nice texture and coating the ingredients evenly.

Toasted sesame seeds

To toast sesame seeds, heat a dry skillet or pan over medium heat. Add the sesame seeds and stir them continuously for a few minutes until they turn golden brown and emit a nutty aroma. Be careful not to burn them. Once toasted, remove the sesame seeds from the heat and let them cool before using.
