• 150 grams shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 1 medium carrot (julienned)
• 200 grams cabbage (shredded)
• 2 stalks green onions (sliced)
• 4 cloves garlic (minced)
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sweet soy sauce (Kecap Manis)
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1 small red chili (optional, sliced)
• 1 whole lime (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions, usually about 2-3 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water, and set aside.

Step 2

In a large wok or skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken and shrimp, cooking for 3-4 minutes, or until fully cooked. Remove from the wok and set aside.

Step 3

In the same wok, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add minced garlic, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Push the garlic to the side, and crack the eggs into the center of the wok. Scramble the eggs until cooked through, then mix them with the garlic.

Step 5

Add the carrot, cabbage, and green onions to the wok. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened.

Step 6

Return the cooked chicken and shrimp to the wok. Add the cooked noodles and toss to combine.

Step 7

Pour in the soy sauce, sweet soy sauce, and oyster sauce. Stir until evenly coated and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more soy sauce or sweet soy sauce for flavor.

Step 9

Optional: Garnish with sliced red chili and a squeeze of lime before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Indonesian noodles!
