Chinese noodles with shrimp show how much flavor Chinese home cooking gets out of a few ingredients. Silky noodles meet sweet, tender shrimp in a sauce of soy sauce, ginger and garlic. The dish has plenty of flavor and comes together fast, so you can make it on a weeknight or serve it when friends come over.
You can adapt it to your taste. Add other vegetables for color, or change the noodles: wheat noodles, rice noodles and glass noodles each give the dish a different texture and look. The method is simple, and the ingredients are easy to find.
