noodles and repeat the process for the remaining noodles, adding more
oil if required until all are cooked. Add a tablespoon of oil and fry
the garlic and scallion over low heat until soft before removing from
the pan. Add the shrimp and chicken and fry until golden. Remove from
the pan. Add the chorizo and cook until it turned brown. Add cabbage,
soy sauce and shrimp stock. Cook over high heat, stirring all the time
until the liquid has reduced by a third. Return the noodles to the wok
