Fried Instant Noodle



Time seems to be so limited these days. I'm exhausted. Not to mention about new recipes, cuz I'm lazy to think of one. Endded up, I just go back to some old one-pot-dishes or simple fried stuffs. Fried instant noodle was our dinner the other day when I came back late. Simple and yet satisfying.

Fried Instant Noodle
Serves 2

Ingredients:

2 pcs of Vit's plain instant noodle
1/4 of a small cabbage, sliced thinly
14 small prawns, shelled
choy sum, trimmed
3 clove of garlic, chopped
1 tbsp of chili paste
3 tbsp of light soy sauce
1 tbsp of oyster sauce
half tbsp of dark soy sauce
