Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Frying oil (or more)
  • 1/2 cup Bean sprouts
  • 2 Stalks Celery; thinly sliced
  • 8 oz Snow peas; in fine julienne
  • 1/4 cup Thinly sliced scallions
  • 1/2 pound Diced ham
  • 2 tablespoon Soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 9 Eggs; beaten
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 1/2 pound Fresh Chinese noodles
  • 1 tablespoon Dark sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon Minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoon Minced ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
  • 2 cup Low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup Bottled clam juice
  • 3 tablespoon Soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoon Rice or white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup Dry sherry
  • 2 cup Shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1/4 cup Fresh cilantro leaves
Directions
  1. 1
    Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. When the pan is nearly smoking, add the bean sprouts, celery, and snow peas.
  2. 2
    Stir-fry the vegetables constantly for 1 minute until crisp-tender, then immediately transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
  3. 3
    Add the scallions, diced ham, and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce to the bowl with the vegetables. Sprinkle in the cornstarch and mix well to combine.
  4. 4
    Pour the beaten eggs and water into the vegetable mixture and stir gently until evenly distributed. Set aside.
  5. 5
    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fresh Chinese noodles for 5 minutes, or until tender. Drain and set aside.
  6. 6
    In a soup pot, combine dark sesame oil, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Place over low heat and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  7. 7
    Add the red pepper flakes, chicken broth, clam juice, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, rice vinegar, and dry sherry to the soup pot.
  8. 8
    Cover the pot, increase heat to medium, and bring the broth to a boil. Let it simmer for 5 minutes to meld the flavors.
  9. 9
    Heat about 3/8-inch depth of frying oil in a large skillet over high heat.
  10. 10
    Ladle 3-ounce portions of the egg mixture into the hot oil. Cook until the edges puff up and the bottoms are golden, about 1 minute.
  11. 11
    Flip the omelets and cook on the other side for about 30 seconds until just set. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels. Cover and keep warm while preparing the remaining omelets.
  12. 12
    Divide the cooked noodles among 4 soup bowls. Ladle the hot broth over the noodles.
  13. 13
    Place a bed of shredded iceberg lettuce on top of the noodles in each bowl.
  14. 14
    Arrange two omelets on top of the lettuce in each bowl. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately.
