Dried Shrimp Noodle Stir Fry

Dried Shrimp Noodle Stir Fry

This is one of Connie's mom's favorite dishes, which we recreate in our kitchen once in a while when the mood for a simple stir fry noodle strikes. The challenging task is to find good quality dried shrimp noodles. Super H Mart in Niles used to stock on a nice variety from Hong Kong (with shrimp roe). However, this recipe works with pretty much any dried, flat, egg noodle variety.
