 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1/4   c            Rice wine
  2       tb           Ginger root, grated fresh
  2                    Garlic cloves, minced
  1       c            Carrots, thinly sliced
  1       c            Broccoli stems, sliced thin
  1       c            Cabbage, sliced thin
  2                    Green onions
    1/4   c            Water
    1/2   ts           Sesame oil, dark
    1/2   ts           Cayenne pepper
  1       tb           Honey (omit if vegan)
  1       t            Hoisin sauce (optional)
  4       c            Rice noodles, cooked
                       Soy sauce to taste

 In a wok over medium-high heat, heat rice wine or mirin until bubbling. Add
 ginger, garlic, carrots and broccoli.  Stir-fry until carrots soften
 slightly, about five minutes.  Add cabbage and green onions; cover and cook
 three minutes.  With a slotted spoon, remove vegetables to a platter and
 set aside.
 Add water, sesame oil, up to 1 tsp. cayenne, honey and hoisin sauce, if
 desired, to wok and heat until bubbling.  Add noodles and stir-fry until
 heated through.  Add vegetables and heat through.  Add soy sauce to taste.
 Note: The sesame oil gives this dish a great flavor, but leave it out if
 you can't afford the few grams of fat it contributes.
