Not only is pancit a fantastic side dish, but by adding any protein you like, it can easily become a satisfying main course.

In a pan, on medium high heat, add oil and then fry onions and garlic for a minute.
Add bean thread noodles, carrots, cabbage, salt and sugar. Pour soy sauce and maggi over vegetables and noodles.
Stir fry for five minutes until they’re soft. Constantly tossing.
Remove from heat and lightly toss in eggs and green onions and serve!
You can add whatever meat you would like to this and additional vegetables.
For a quick meal, I like to add shredded rotisserie chicken.
