Honestly, I could eat noodles every single day. It is so easy to prepare, you can easily add any vegetable that’s there in the refrigerator and takes less than 30 minutes to make. Noodles is a total life saviour when you are sort of time to make dinner. Cook the noodles while you are prepping the veggies and rest it takes just a few minutes to put together a meal.

A Chinese WOK works best for Stir-fries

One of the reasons why Asian Takeaways tastes better than homemade ones is the smokey charred flavour in the dish. Ingredients are tossed on high heat, really quickly to give the flavour. It’s really difficult to recreate the same set up at home. Saying that using a wok will make your stir-fries a taste little closer to the restaurant version.

For making stir-fries, Fried rice or any kind of noodles a Chinese wok works the best. I recently got my wok from amazon and I am absolutely loving it. The wok is getting heated really well because of its thin material. Tossing in high heat also lends the smokey flavour to the noodles.

So if are making  Asian style stir-fries at home frequently then, I strongly recommend investing in a Chinese wok.

Helpful tips to Make Shrimp Garlic Noodles

  1. Start with good quality noodles. I prefer to use egg noodles because of it has a chewiness. You can also use any other varieties of Asian noodles here.
  2. Cook noodles as per the package instruction. I like to keep the noodles a little undercooked and cook it along with the sauce later. Once the noodles are cooked put it in a colander and run it under cold tap water to stop further cooking. I would recommend cooking the noodles just before you start prepping other ingredients. The longer it stands it starts to stick together.
  3. Keep the stir fry sauce ready before you start cooking.
  4. If using frozen shrimps, thaw them in advance.
  5. I have kept it simple by adding only green onions. But you can add red bell peppers, carrots for extra nutrition.
