Chinese Noodles with vegetables and shrimps (dry and fresh)

I was preparing many dishes for celebrating Chinese New Year, as well as taking pictures that I forgot to take a picture of the dish itself....anyway!....we enjoyed it!

I always use vegetables that I have in the fridge, but this is the first time that I use cabbage as one of the main ingredients. I love cabbage, and I never thought of using it. However, I read that it is one of the ingredients to stir fry noodles for the Chinese New Year. I have to admit that it gave the dish another level of flavor, and I loved it! 

Chinese Noodles with vegetables and shrimps (dry and fresh)

6 Cantonese-Style Noodle Nests

Vegetables that you have in the fridge in small pieces. In my case:

2 zucchini

1 yellow bell pepper

1 red bell pepper

3 carrots in slices and blanched for 3 minutes

1/2 small cabbage chopped

200 grams of mushrooms

200 grams of shrimps

3 tablespoons of dried shrimps.

6 garlic cloves

2 pieces of ginger

1 tablespoon of oyster sauce

1 tablespoon of dark soy sauce

1 tablespoon of fish sauce

Oil of your preference

Mix the sauce in a dish, and set aside.

Chop ginger and garlic together, and set aside.

Place the dried shrimps, and add 1/2 cup of boiling water. Set it aside for 30 minutes, and strained it. 

Once you have everything chopped, it is fast and easy.

Boil the noodles for 5 minutes, and strain it. Set aside.

In a wok, place some oil and heated it. Add 1 teaspoon of ginger garlic paste, and add the cabbage, yellow and red bell pepper, and carrots. Sir fry it for 4 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon of ginger garlic paste. and add the zucchini along with the shrimps. Stir fry it for 3 minutes. Add the remaining garlic ginger paste, and add both shrimps. Stir fry it for 3 minutes or until the shrimps are cooked, but not over cooked. Add the noodles, incorporate the sauce mix, and stir it for 3 minutes. Serve it and ENJOY!!
