  • Toss everything thoroughly then taste. Adjust the seasonings to suit your taste.
  • Drizzle in the sesame seed oil and toss thoroughly once more.
  • Serve your chicken, vegetables and bee hon stir fry topped with cilantro and fried shallots.

Notes

Use annatto oil and you won’t be tempted to use a lot of soy sauce to give your noodles an attractive color. After all, soy sauce is a seasoning and not a coloring agent.
