Ingredients

• ✓ doubanjiang
• oil
• egg
• green bean
• mushroom
• green bell pepper
• carrot
• egg noodle
• water
• soy sauce
• oyster sauce
• soy sauce
• sesame oil
• spring onion

Instructions

1. 1 Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over high heat. Whisk eggs together in a bowl. Pour into the skillet and stir-fry quickly until lightly set, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a large plate. Set aside.
2. 2 Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a wok over high heat. Add green beans, mushrooms, bell pepper, and carrot; stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a large plate; set aside.
3. 3 Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rapid boil. Cook egg noodles at a boil until they are just starting to soften, but are still pretty firm, about 4 minutes. Drain and rinse cooked noodles under cold running water. Drain and separate. Transfer to a bowl and add just enough oil to coat the noodles so they won't clump together.
4. 4 Whisk water, light soy sauce, soybean paste, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, and sesame oil together in a bowl until sauce is well combined.
5. 5 Combine cooked noodles, vegetables, eggs, and sauce in the same wok and stir fry over medium-high heat until everything is warmed through and noodles and vegetables are cooked to your liking, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately sprinkled with spring onions.
