Banana Cake & Almost Vegetarian Stir Fried Glass Noodles

Make this banana bread just to send over to my neighbor, she sent over some cookies for Tish the other day, in return this banana bread goes to her.
Made this stir fry for lunch. Called it almost vegetarian since I added some chicken stock.
Stir Fried Glass Noodles

1 small pack of glass noodles - soaked in water for 20 mins, drained.
2 cloves garlic - crushed
5 bird eyes chillies - or less.
1 bunch bok choi - cut into 2 cm, separate leaves and stems
1 carrot - julienned
A handful of shredded cabbage
A handful of sliced fresh button mushroom
Half a cube of chicken stock
salt & pepper to taste
1 tbsp of cooking oil

- a heat a wok till smoky, put in oil and throw in garlic.
-add chillies and bok choi stem, stir for a minute
-add carrot and cabbage, stir then add mushroom.
-add chicken stock, if too dry add about 2 tbsp of water.
- throw in the noodles, follows with bok choi leaves. Season with salt & pepper.
-stir fry for further 2 minutes. (if the noodles still firm add some more water)

Serve with a wedge of lime, fried shallot and chopped spring onion.

* u could add in chicken breast or beef for extra flavour. And it works well with almost any asian stir fry vegs. I wish I had bean sprout!
