Ingredients
- 4 tbsp peanut or other cooking oil
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 100 g bean sprouts
- 100 g barbecued pork (char siu), thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp dried shrimp, soaked in boiling water for 1 hour, drained
- 300 g dried rice vermicelli, soaked in hot water for 10 minutes, drained
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp Chinese curry powder or five spice powder
- 2 tbsp light soy sauce
- 2 spring onions, thinly sliced

Instructions
- Heat a wok or large frying pan over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil and heat until very hot. Pour in the beaten egg and cook for 1-2 minutes or until cooked through, swirling the pan to make a thin omelette. Transfer the omelette to a chopping board, roll up and cut into small strips.
- Reheat the wok over high heat and add the remaining oil. When the oil is very hot, add the onion and bean sprouts and toss for 1-2 minutes or until starting to soften. Add the pork and shrimp and toss for another minute.
- Add the noodles, salt, curry powder and soy sauce and toss until heated through and well combined. Add the omelette strips, spring onion and chilli. Toss to combine and serve.
