Equipment
1 Wok
Ingredients
- 1 pound pancit miki
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 small onion chopped
- ½ pound pork loin
- 10 medium shrimp
- 4 cups green cabbage chopped
- 1 cup carrots sliced thin
- 2 stalk celery
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 cup bone broth
- salt and pepper to taste
- 8 wedges lemon
Instructions
- In a wok over medium-high heat, heat cooking oil and start cooking the minced garlic and onion until translucent. Toss the sliced pork lion, a pinch of salt, and black pepper and cook until the pork is light to a golden brown.
- Pour a cup of water or bone broth, shrimp, soy sauce, oyster sauce, carrots, cabbage, and celery. Stir until everything is well blended, cover with a lid, and cook on high heat for about 3-5 minutes or until the cabbage has wilted a bit.
- Lastly, toss the miki egg noodles and cook for about 3-5 minutes or until all the liquid is reduced. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve with calamansi or lemon wedges.
Notes
Recipe Notes:
- Prepare the vegetables and meat ahead of time for a smooth and efficient cooking process. You can chop and slice them a day in advance and transfer them to a container, and store them in the fridge until you are ready to cook.
- Wok is not necessary, but be sure to use a large skillet for more room to stir-fry.
- Use high heat. Pancit is traditionally cooked in high heat to ensure the noodles and vegetables are cooked quickly and evenly. This helps to prevent the noodles from getting mushy and the vegetables from becoming soft.
- Don’t overcook the noodles, as they become mushy and lose their texture.
- When adding seasonings, such as soy sauce and oyster sauce, it’s better to add them gradually and taste them as you cook. This will help you adjust the flavors according to your preference.
- For an extra burst of flavor, garnish it with chopped green onions or parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice. This will add brightness and freshness to the pancit guisado miki.
