Seeking oodles of noodles? Then a stir-fry is just what you need. The key to stir-fried noodle success is to make sure you have all your ingredients chopped, prepared and ready to throw into a searing hot wok. We’ve gathered our favourite noodle stir-fries from around the world including one of Thailand’s greatest exports, the pad Thai (check out David Thompson’s top-notch recipe); a smoky char kway teow, and a slippery japchae from Korea. As for Victor Liong’s beef hor fun, there’s nothing better.
