Ingredients
- 8 oz wide rice noodles
- ½ lb pork shoulder or loin, thinly sliced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
- 1
Soak the 8 oz wide rice noodles in hot water until pliable, about 20 minutes, then drain. They should bend easily but still be firm.
- 2
In a small bowl, mix 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, and 1 tbsp brown sugar (if you have it) until the sugar dissolves.
- 3
Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the 0.5 lb pork and stir-fry until browned, about 3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- 4
Add the remaining 1 tbsp oil, then the 1 sliced onion and 3 minced garlic cloves. Stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- 5
Add the 2 cups broccoli and 2 tbsp water. Cover and steam until bright green and crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
- 6
Return the pork to the pan, add the drained noodles and the sauce. Toss everything over high heat until the noodles are coated and slightly charred, about 2 minutes.
- 7
Serve hot, sprinkled with sesame seeds if you have them.
