Poodle Doodle (Malaysian Noodle Stir-Fry) image

My brother lived with us many years ago. He was a fussy eater, but was trying new things at last. One night when I was making this dish he tried a piece of lap cheong & declared it tasted like a poodle's .... well, you get the drift. I started making this with a Kwan Du recipe, but don't think I ever really followed the recipe very closely. We love lots of vegies in our stirfries - feel free to use your favourites. Reheats well in the wok or microwave.
