Cook the vegetable portion by adding 12 ounces of french beans and 6 ounces of halved brussels sprouts to the wok.

6

Stir-fry the vegetables until nearly done, ensuring minimal oil is left in the wok to increase temperature for caramelization.

7

Add tofu puff to the vegetables to absorb flavors, cooking until saturated.

8

Season the vegetables with oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, light soy sauce, and dark soy sauce, adjusting to taste with frequent taste tests.

9

Add sliced red bell pepper to the vegetable mixture and stir until combined and ready to serve over noodles.

Set the vegetable mixture aside to keep warm.

12

Add 1 tablespoon of minced garlic to the chicken and cook in the wok, scraping burnt bits from the bottom with water to enhance flavor.
