Ingredients:

Main

400 grams fresh noodles

or

3 packets of dry noodles

Others

150 grams bean sprouts, cleaned

3 spring onions cut into small pieces

1 Onion diced

1 green chilli sliced into small pieces.

3 eggs

50 grams cabbage, shredded
50 grams carrot
50 grams french beans

Rice noodles

Method

Egg stir-fry

Sir-fried egg

Bean sprouts 

Stir-fried vegetables added to the sprouts

Noodles added to the sir-fry

1. If you are using dry noodles, put 300 ml of water in a sauce pan and bring the water to the boil. Add noodles and other ingredients that come with the noodles packet. If  the ingredients in the noodles packet does not include some oil add half a tea spoon of sesame seed oil or butter. This will prevent the noodles from sticking together.
2. Boil the noodles for three minutes. The noodles will be half cooked now. Remove the pan and set it aside for three minutes. By now it should be cooked well. Press one strand between your fingers, it should crush. Or taste it to see that it is soft enough but not too soft. Drain the water in a strainer.  Hold the strainer under running cold water to stop further cooking. Keep the noodles in the strainer aside so that it will be dry when you start to fry.  I have used fresh rice noodles. Set aside.
3. In a wok add oil and fry the beaten egg with little salt. Continue frying in low heat. As the egg gets dryer brake into small pieces with the ladle and fry until the egg pieces become firm.Set aside.
4. In the same wok heat one table spoon of oil and add onions and fry for 3 minutes in low heat. Add the bean sprouts and fry for 3 minutes or till they turn colour slightly.  Then add shredded cabbage,carrot and beans mixture and continue frying another 1 minute. I had microwaved the vegetables so that I don't need to cook longer in oil and add green chili.
5. Add the noodles and soy sauce and ½ teas spoon of salt and stir all that is in the wok to mix well and cook for another two minutes.
6. Take the wok from the heat and serve on plates. Sprinkle the fried egg and spring onion pieces on the top of the plate to garnish.
7. Serve immediately.
