Скачать или смотреть $5 MEALS: Eggs & Cabbage Fried Vermicelli (Chinese Style)

Welcome back to Fahid's Kitchen.

Today we are making Chinese Style Eggs & Cabbage Fried Vermicelli

Most importantly if you get a good deal It cost us over $0.20 for 1lb of cabbage, the carrot was $1.15, the vermicelli was less than $2.50 and add all the other ingredients and you got it for $5 !! You can easily serve 2-3 people!

This is one of those vegetarian meals that saves you when you have nothing in the fridge but eggs and a few vegetables. We are taking thin glass noodles (vermicelli) and stir-frying them with crunchy cabbage, sweet carrots, and fluffy eggs. The best part? The noodles drink up the soy and oyster sauce, making every bite packed with flavor.

Why this recipe wins:
• The Texture: Soft eggs, crunchy veggies, and chewy noodles. It’s perfect.
• The Cost: Cabbage and eggs are the cheapest ingredients you can buy.
• The Speed: Once the chopping is done, the cooking takes about 5 minutes.
The Ingredients:
• The Noodles: 1 pack Vermicelli Noodles. Crucial: Soak them in warm water until soft. Do not boil them or they will turn to mush!

• The Protein: 3 to 4 Eggs.
• The Veg:
• 1 lb Green Cabbage (Napa or Taiwanese is best for sweetness).
• 1 Large Carrot (Julienned/sliced into thin strips).
• 2 Long Red Chili Peppers (for color and heat).
• Optional: 2 tsp Chives (Chinese Chives have more garlic flavor).
• The Aromatics: 1 Whole Garlic (chopped). Yes, the whole thing.
• The Sauce:
• 3 tbsp Soy Sauce (Light).
• 2 tsp Oyster Sauce (The umami bomb).
• 2 tsp Balsamic Vinegar (Our hack for Chinese Black Vinegar).
• 1 tsp Sugar & ½ to 1 tsp Salt (to taste).
• Sesame Oil (for the finish).

The Easy Method:
1. Prep: Soak your vermicelli until soft. Drain it well.
2. The Eggs: Scramble the eggs in a hot wok. Once they are fluffy, take them out and set aside. (If you leave them in, they will get rubbery).
3. Aromatics: In the same wok, fry the garlic, chilies, and chives for a minute until your kitchen smells amazing.
4. The Veg: Toss in the cabbage and carrots. Stir fry until tender (add a splash of water if it gets too dry).
5. The Combine: Add the cooked eggs back in. Throw in the soaked noodles.
6. The Sauce: Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, vinegar, sugar, and salt.
7. High Heat: Stir fry everything together on high heat for 1 minute to mix the flavors. Finish with a drizzle of sesame oil.
Serve immediately while it's steaming hot.
