PROCEDURE

Take water to boil in a large wok. Add noodles to boiling water. After 3-4 minutes check if the noodles is done. Noodles should be done but chewy. Drain water from noodles by draining on a colander. Rub a little oil(1-2 tsp) in noodles to prevent them from sticking to each other. Boil the carrots and beans in the same way. They should be chewy too. Heat the oil in wok. When oil starts to smoke fry noodles until crispy. Fry the noodles in batches (as much the oil can hold). Fry only one third of the boiled noodles and keep the rest. Keep the fried noodles on a tissue to absorb excess oil.
Now break the eggs carefully in 2 separate bowls so that the yolk remains intact. Slide slowly 1 egg in the hot oil. When the egg white is done sprinkle a pinch of salt and shift from the oil . Keep on a tissue. Fry the second egg in the same way. The yolks should be intact.
Now drain the oil from wok. In the same wok heat 1 tsp of oil and stir fry the boiled chicken pieces. Shift and keep aside. Now add 1 tsp oil and fry the slit mushrooms. Shift and keep aside. Now add 3 tsp of oil and fry the chopped onion and diced capsicum together until tender. Add the vegetables to it . Fry for 2 minutes. Add the boiled noodles. Stir fry for 2 minutes. Add the sauces and vinegar. Stir fry for 1 minutes. Now mix the fried chicken and mushrooms. Spread this noodles on a serving plate. Spread the fried noodles over the boiled noodles evenly.
