      Despite its look, it turned out pretty good, besides the burnt onions

    Keep it up man!

    Throw some color on it. Some green onions, or carrots.

    Or practice plating. Some ideas

    A lot of the downvotes are from people who want attractive-looking food. So don’t let them discourage you.

      Thanks for the tips! Couldn’t really do the food justice since the other pic was just noodles in a bowl

      If I do ever try making it again I’ll definitely be using more veggies, this was just an attempt at using leftovers to make something new to eat~

    Try throwing some veggies in next time, contrasting textures and enhances flavour.

      I’ll definitely try some pepper and carrots next time I make it, maybe a bit more onion as well

        I quite like broccoli in stir frys, the tops when done right soak up the juices for a burst of flavour.

      It definitely was! It was a tad bit on the dry side, so I should probably cook it on a lower heat or cook it faster, but otherwise super tasty

        Faster, stir-fry is typically cooked fast over high heat. Get the oil nice and hot and keep the ingredients moving around the pan through the oil to keep them from burning to the pan. (Pat dry vegtables if you just washed them or the oil is gonna splatter.) Precooked egg noodles only need like 2 minutes in a wok, less for vermicelli noodles. Don’t “stir” them, toss them with chopsticks (or tongs) so that the other ingredients mix in with the noodles.

        Best of luck, stirfry is great!

          OP shouldn’t use this non-stick pan on those extremely high wok temperatures.
