   fry with 1 cup of hot oil only 30 seconds and drain.

   4. Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a pan.  Stir fry the
   mushrooms, the bamboo shoot, the green beans, and the
   ham.  After 1 minute add fried chicken, egg cubes, and
   seasoning sauce.  Stir fry over high heat until
   mixture thickens. Then, add the white leeks. Turn off
   the heat right away. Put on platter over fried rice
   noodles.
   
   5. Serve with Mandarin Dan Bing or spring roll skin
   which will be used to wrap around the meat and noodle
   mixture.
