Egg Noodle With Shimeji Mushrooms 白玉灵兰菇炒面

Egg Noodle With Shimeji Mushrooms 白玉灵兰菇炒面

Recipe source :  Doris Choo

As I was browsing through the shelves of  a supermarket, a sales promoter offered me shimeji mushrooms which were on promotion. The sample she offered me was cooked in sesame sauce. The promoter said it is very easy to cook this type of mushroom. She further told me that it'll taste just as great stir-fried in oyster sauce. I was looking for something to cook noodles and I thought to myself, "why not?". 

The package comes in twin packs and they are said to be rich in vitamin B2, D, niacin, fibre, potassium and amino acids. They were neatly packed and looked very fresh. The simple recipe provided inside the package mentioned about cooking these mushrooms with pasta.  So coincidentally that was what I had in mind, except that I had planned to cook them with home-made egg noodles instead.

I used the same recipe for  home-made egg noodles, but this time round, I used the noodle maker to cut them into flat thin strips as shown in picture below.
