Add several cups water to wok or saucepan. Bring to boil over high heat. Add mushrooms, carrots and snow peas. Cook 1 minute. Drain.

Add oil to wok or large non-stick skillet. Heat over high. Add noodles in one clump. Cook, undisturbed 1 minute to brown bottom. Using spatula, carefully flip. Cook 1 minute. Transfer to plate. Add mushroom mixture to wok or skillet. Cook 30 seconds. Add stock, oyster sauce or vegetarian stir-fry sauce, soy sauce, mushroom soy sauce and sugar. It will quickly come to a boil. Add noodles.
