Natural bodies are divided into 3 kingdoms of nature: the mineral, vegetable, and animal kingdoms. Minerals grow, Plants grow and live, Animals grow, live, and have feeling - Carolus Linnaeus Stir fried vegetables for eating with rice noodles, my way This is the usual vegetables dish I make to eat with rice noodles. Usually, I make with one main vegetable like cabbage or broccoli, and combined with 1 or 2 vegetables like carrot, mushroom or tomato... and depending on what I have in hand... I use the same seasoning for most of my vegetables dishes. I don't like ginger in stir fry and don't like chilli heat either, so I leave them out.

So I don't use oyster sauce. I add hoisin sauce, sometimes, in noodle soups I won't use Balsamic vinegar anymore except those which don't contain sugar ...
