Instructions
1. Finely slice the mushrooms and reserve the soaking liquid.
2. Heat a wok until very hot, then add about half the oil, ginger and half the garlic, tossing to combine.
3. Add the pork and stir-fry for about 1 minute, then remove from the wok. Add the prawns and squid and fry for 1 minute or until just cooked, then remove from the wok. Add the cabbage, carrot and mushrooms and stir-fry for 1 minute or until softened. Combine with the other fried ingredients.
4. Add a little more oil to the wok if necessary, then add the noodles and toss to coat well. Add the reserved cooked ingredients, soy sauces, rice wine, sugar and spring onions and toss to combine. Add a little of the mushroom soaking liquid if the mixture looks a little dry.
