It's not entirely clear where Singapore noodles—the stir-fried curried rice noodles with shrimp, pork, and vegetables—come from, though it's unlikely Singapore is the source. Regardless, they're a stir-fry classic and are easy to make at home. Here's what you need to know, from how to choose the right rice noodles to how to make the stir-fry work on a home burner.

Ingredients

2 tsp. Toasted sesame oil
2 Scallions, sliced very thinly on the bias
1 tbsp. Curry powder, divided
1/2 Medium carrot, julienned
12 Snow peas, stemmed, tough strings removed, and slice thinly on the bias
1/2 Medium red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and julienned
1/4 Medium onion, very thinly sliced
1/4 pound Chinese roast pork or ham, cut into thin strips
Kosher salt
2 Eggs, beaten
1/4 tsp. Sugar
1/4 tsp. Ground white pepper
1 tsp. Shaoxing wine
1 tsp. Soy sauce
2 cloves Mediun garlic, minced
5 1/2 oz. Dried rice stick noodles
2 1/2 tsp. Asian fish sauce, divided
2 tbsp. Canola or vegetable oil, divided
1/4 pound Shrimp, shelled, deveined

Method

01

Pat shrimp dry with paper towels and place in a small bowl. Add 1 teaspoon canola oil and 1/2 teaspoon fish sauce. Mix well and set aside in the refrigerator.
02

Place rice noodles in a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Let stand for 5 minutes. Drain noodles in a colander, rinse with cold running water, then drain until dry. Using scissors, cut the bundle of noodles in half.
03

Place garlic in a small bowl and add soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, white pepper, sugar, and remaining 2 teaspoons fish sauce. Mix well and set sauce aside.
04

Heat 1 teaspoon canola oil in a wok or nonstick skillet over high heat, tilting to swirl oil, until smoking. Add eggs and let cook undisturbed for about 10 seconds, then gently move the eggs back and forth with a spatula until they start to firm up. Break the eggs into small pieces, then set aside in a large bowl.
05

Wipe wok clean. Return wok to high heat, add 2 teaspoons oil and heat until smoking. Add shrimp and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add roast pork and onion and continue to stir-fry for another 30 seconds. Add red bell pepper and snow peas and stir for another 30 seconds, then add carrots. Add 1 teaspoon curry powder, season with salt, and cook, tossing, until curry is evenly distributed. Scrape wok contents into bowl with eggs.
06

Wipe the wok clean again. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil over high heat until smoking. Add the rice-stick noodles and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the sauce and remaining 2 teaspoons curry powder. Stir until the curry powder is evenly distributed. Return egg, shrimp, roast pork, and vegetables to wok and stir-fry until everything is evenly combined, about 30 seconds. Season with salt and remove from heat. Add scallions, drizzle with sesame oil, mix well, and transfer to a large serving bowl. Enjoy immediately.
