I've been eliminating white foods in an effort to eat healthy, that means no pasta, white rice, etc. One of the things I really miss is chinese shrimp noodles with oyster sauce. A delicious convenient food, shrimp noodles are basically dried chinese egg noodles made with shrimp. You can simply boil for 2-3 minutes and top with oyster sauce and veggies for a quick meal.I decided to substitute yam noodles for that quick fix of pasta. It's not the same but yummy all the same.
Yam Noodles with Oyster Sauce
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/2 lb. of snow pea shoots
1 clove garlic, peeled and slivered
2 7-oz packs of yam noodles, rinsed well
2 tablespoons of soy sauce
1 tablespoon mirin
2 tablespoons premium oyster sauce
2-3 drops sesame oil
Heat one teaspoon vegetable oil in pan. Add garlic and saute until fragrant. Add pea shoots and stir fry until slightly wilted. Add a little water as necessary. Remove from pan.
In the same pan add the remaining teaspoon oil. When hot, add the yam noodles, soy sauce, mirin. Stir fry until the noodles are slightly translucent and most of the water/sauce is reduced. Turn off heat. Add oyster sauce and sesame oil and toss until well coated. Add pea shoots and toss until combined. Serve.
