    Utensils Used
    | 1. Marinate selected meat(s) with 1 tsp of corn starch, ½ tsp of sherry, ½ tsp of soy sauce, garlic, and a pinch of baking soda. | 2. Set aside for 15 minutes or longer. | 3. Heat wok or large pot with ¾ - 1 cup corn or vegetable oil until smoking. | 4. Pan fry fresh noodles until crispy golden brown and set aside in a serving container or platter. | 5. Sear meat(s) and set aside with noodles for later. | 6. Add a little oil to the wok (approx. 2 tablespoons) and stir fry veggies except for the bean sprouts. | 7. Mix chicken stock with corn starch to thicken sauce and add rest of the ingredients. | 8. Either mix noodles with the thickened sauce or serve over the fried noodles (Hong Kong Style). | 9. Flavor with sesame oil and garnish with cilantro for presentation. | 10. Noodles are available as packaged fresh thin "steamed" egg noodles in Asian markets not to be confused with the thin "egg noodle balls" for won ton soups. | 11. The latter tends to get gooey and starchy when using "lower heat temperatured" home stoves. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
