Tofu is a plant-based alternative with protein.

Heat vegetable oil in a large wok over high heat until shimmering.

Add garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add prawn and squid, stirring until they turn opaque, about 2-3 minutes.

Add thick egg noodles and toss to combine with the seafood.

Pour in soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and oyster sauce, stirring well to coat the noodles.

Add water instead of chicken stock and cook until the noodles absorb the flavors, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in bean sprouts and spring onions, cooking for another minute.

Season with white pepper to taste.

Remove from heat and garnish with Chinese chives and lime wedges.
