Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons groundnut oil (peanut)

  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger

  • 1 red chile, seeded and finely chopped

  • 5 fresh shiitake mushrooms, sliced

  • 2 tablespoons Ground Turmeric

  • 3 1/2 ounces diced smoked bacon

  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced

  • 1 handful julienned carrot strips

  • 1 handful bean sprouts

  • 3 1/2 ounces cooked chicken breast, shredded

  • 9 ounces dried vermicelli rice noodles, pre-soaked in hot water for 10 minutes and drained

  • 1 teaspoon crushed dried chiles

  • 2 tablespoons Light Soy Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons Oyster Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon clear rice vinegar or cider vinegar

  • 1 Egg, Beaten

  • Dash Toasted Sesame Oil

  • 2 spring onions (green), sliced lengthwise

Directions

  • Heat the groundnut oil in a wok, and when hot, stir-fry the ginger, chiles, mushrooms and turmeric for a few seconds. Add the bacon, and cook for less than 1 minute. Add the red bell pepper, carrots, and bean sprouts and cook for another minute, then add the cooked chicken, and stir well to combine.
  • Add the noodles, and stir-fry well, for 2 minutes, then season with the chiles, soy sauce, oyster sauce and vinegar. Stir to combine.
  • Add in the beaten egg, stirring gently until the egg is cooked through, less than 1 minute. Then, season with the sesame oil. Sprinkle over the spring onions, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • You could also add 6 ounces raw Tiger prawns (shrimp), shelled, and deveined. Add them to the pan, and cook for 1 minute, or until they start to turn pink, right before you cook the bacon.
