Step 1

First, let’s take a look at the soy sauce. To make a good dish, it’s essential to choose good seasonings.

Step 2

Soak the rice noodles in warm water for 10 minutes, then drain and dry them. Make sure to dry them thoroughly.

Step 3

Cut the napa cabbage and carrots into thin strips.

Step 4

Chop the pork into small pieces, soak and chop the mushrooms, soak and dry the dried shrimp, and mince the garlic.

Step 5

Heat a wok with plenty of oil over low heat and stir-fry the garlic until it’s golden brown.

Step 6

Add the dried shrimp and stir-fry until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the rice noodles and stir-fry over low heat, constantly stirring with chopsticks for about 3 minutes.

Step 8

Add the chopped pork. The reason for not adding it earlier is to keep its tender texture. If added too early, it will become tough.

Step 9

When the noodles start to make a popping sound, add the napa cabbage and stir-fry until it’s soft.

Step 10

Add a suitable amount of soy sauce, a pinch of salt, a pinch of pepper, and a suitable amount of sugar. Then add the carrot strips and stir-fry over high heat. Finally, add the chopped mushrooms and stir-fry a few times before serving.
