Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the kale thoroughly and remove the stems. Chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces. Clean the shitake mushrooms with a damp cloth and slice them into thin strips. Peel the carrot and julienne it into thin matchstick pieces.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Noodles

    Soak the vermicelli noodles in hot water for about 10 minutes or until they are soft. Drain and set aside.

    Prepare the Aromatics

    Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

Cooking

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pan or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 5

    Add the Vegetables

    Add the chopped kale, sliced shitake mushrooms, and julienned carrot to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the kale is wilted and the mushrooms are tender.

    Combine with Noodles

    Add the soaked vermicelli noodles to the pan with the vegetables. Pour in the soy sauce, and mix everything together. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
