  • 18.20 gm peanut oil
  • 2 long red chillies, seeded, finely chopped
  • 2 purple Asian shallots, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 (about 200g) chicken breast, thinly sliced

Instructions:
  • Mix oyster sauce, vinegar, soy sauce, fish sauce, palm sugar, and lime juice in a small bowl.
  • Place the noodles in a large heatproof bowl and cover with hot water. Let them soften for 5 minutes then drain well.
  • Heat half of the oil in a sizzling wok. Toss in the chili, shallots, and garlic, stir for 30 seconds until fragrant. Throw in the chicken and prawns, stir for 2-3 minutes until cooked. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Heat the remaining oil in the wok until it shimmers. Pour in the egg and swirl the pan to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the egg is fully set. Transfer to a clean cutting board and slice thinly.
  • Add the chicken mixture and egg back to the wok along with noodles, cabbage, tomato, and oyster sauce. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and well mixed. Finish by adding green onions, half of the coriander, and basil, then toss to combine.
  • Plate the dish and generously garnish with the remaining fragrant coriander and basil. Sprinkle with crunchy peanuts and serve promptly with a side of zesty lime wedges.
