Instructions

Slice onion and celery, shred cabbage, mince garlic, and measure out all sauces before cooking.
Cook noodles according to package instructions, drain, and rinse under cold water. Toss lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
Heat oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add onion, celery, and garlic, stir-fry for 2 minutes until slightly softened.
Add shredded cabbage and cook for another minute, stirring constantly to retain some crispness.
Add cooked noodles along with soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and black pepper. Toss to combine, letting noodles caramelize slightly.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Remove from heat and serve hot.

Notes

Add cooked shrimp, chicken, or tofu for a protein boost.
For gluten-free: use tamari and gluten-free noodles and oyster sauce.
Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days or freeze up to 1 month.
Top with green onions, sesame seeds, or chili oil for extra flair.
