1/2 cup Bamboo shoots

1/2 lb Egg noodles, fresh, Chinese

1 tbsp Virgin olive oil



SAUCE



1/4 cup Virgin olive oil

2 slice Ginger, minced (up to 3)

1 tbsp Shoyu, (soy sauce)

1/2 cup Chicken stock

1 tsp Sesame oil

2 tbsp Oyster sauce, (up to 3)

2 tbsp Water



OTHER INGREDIENTS



1/2 lb Char siu, (Chinese roast pork)

Mushrooms: In a small bowl cover the mushrooms with 1/2 cup warm water. Let them soak for 30 minutes. Discard the water and the stems. Cut mushrooms into 1/8" strips.



Bok Choy: Wash and trim cabbage. Cut into 2" x 1/4" strips.



Bamboo Shoots: Drain; slice in 2" x 1/8" strips



Noodles: Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil and boil noodles for 4-5 minutes. Drain. Arrange noodles, which have been tossed with 1 tablespoon olive oil, in a shallow baking dish. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 7-8 minutes or until lightly browned. Turn and bake another 7-8 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.



NOTE: You can eliminate the baking of the noodles and just mix them in with the veggies and sauce.



Sauce: Heat wok. Add oil, ginger, bok choy, mushrooms, bamboo shoots and stir fry for a couple of minutes - not too long. Add shoyu, chicken stock, sesame oil, oyster sauce and toss until completely heated through. Add cornstarch mixture; stir until sauce thickens and remove from heat.
