Cut your noodles in parts before cooking them. Otherwise, the will be way to long and hard to eat or separate.
Only blanch the broccoli , don’t over cook or it will turn out way to mushy.
Can you smell it? I do and it smells delicious. I cooked it all up in a wok but if you don’t have one a large pan or dutch oven will do the trick.
Delicious!
