Preparation

  1. Step 1

    If you are using fresh noodles, blanch them by boiling for three to five minutes in a large saucepan of water. Boil dried noodles four to five minutes. Drain noodles and set aside in a bowl of cold water.

  2. Step 2

    Cut the bean curd into half-inch cubes.

  3. Step 3

    Heat the oil for deep frying in a deep fat fryer or large wok until it almost smokes. Deep-fry the bean curd in two batches for one to two minutes, until lightly browned. Drain on paper towels.

  4. Step 4

    In another wok or skillet, heat two teaspoons of the oil and add the eggs, sesame oil and salt. When cooked the eggs should look like a thin flat pancake. Remove from the pan, roll up the pancake and slice one-inch thick to form long strips. Set aside.

  5. Step 5

    Add the remaining oil to a wok or skillet. Add garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Drain the noodles and add them to the pan with the rest of the ingredients. Stir-fry until well mixed. Add the egg strips and fried bean curd and stir-fry another three to four minutes until the bean curd is heated through. Divide into two portions and serve at once.
