       Yield: 4 Servings
  
     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 ts 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.
