Steps:
- In a large pot of salted water, boil the noodles until cooked.
- Drain and toss them with just enough oil to keep them from sticking.
- Spread them to cool on a tray or cookie sheet.
- Heat a lightly oiled, non-stick frying pan, and add one fourth of the noodles evenly in the frying pan.
- They should be flat, not heaped.
- Fry until crisp and brown underneath, then flip them and fry the other side.
- Repeat to make 4 crispy noodle cakes and place on individual plates.
- Fry the onion, garlic, and ginger until brown.
- Add the remaining stir-fry vegetables and stir-fry 2 minutes more, or until barely cooked but still crisp.
- Spread the stir-fried mixture on top of the noodle cakes in 4 equal portions.
- Serve.
