静
Fried noodles are a traditional snack popular in both northern and southern China. Whether in the bustling streets or in formal restaurants, you will find pan-fried noodles. People use a wide variety of ingredients to cook a wide variety of fried noodles recipes. Most Chinese family lunches are a meal of rice and some stir-fry, but, if you don't want to cook rice and stir-fry at home, it's a good choice to make fried noodles. 
NOTE: Chinese broccoli or spinach leaves make a delicious choice for the leafy greens. For the protein, try diced Kou Rou, diced bacon, or diced ham for delicious alternatives. For a bit of spice, chop up a dried er jing tao pepper and add it with the garlic and red onion.

Notes

  • There is no need to cook the noodles too well. This prevents the noodles from becoming shattered when they are fried. 
  • You can substitute any vegetables or meat you like to the fried noodles. 
  • Guangxi Kou Rou, bacon, or diced ham make nice alternatives to ham sausage
  • Spinach leaves are a delicious substitute for Chinese broccoli
  • 2 packages of Ramen noodles are excellent in this dish. Discard the seasoning packets.
