It’s an effortlessly elegant meal that proves a spectacular breakfast doesn’t have to be complicated. Before you start, let’s gather everything you’ll need. The beauty of this recipe is its flexibility, so feel free to make it your own. For one generous serving, you will need: Ingredients: Noodles: 1 serving of dried wheat noodles (about 80-100g). Shrimp: 6 large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined. Egg: 1 hard-boiled egg, peeled. Broccoli: ½ cup of small broccoli florets. Light Soy Sauce: 1 tablespoon. Shaoxing Cooking Wine: 1 teaspoon. Salt: ¼ teaspoon, or to taste. Water: About 2-3 cups, or enough to cook the noodles. Optional Garnish: A drizzle of sesame oil or some sliced green onions. A Note on Ingredients & Substitutions: Noodles: Any long, thin dried noodle works well here. If you can’t find traditional “hanging noodles” (挂面), feel free to use ramen noodles (just discard the seasoning packet), or even spaghetti or angel hair pasta in a pinch. Shaoxing Wine (料酒): This is a Chinese cooking wine that adds a specific, fragrant depth. You can find it in most Asian grocery stores. If you can’t get it, a great substitute is a teaspoon of dry sherry….
