What you’ll need

Allergens
Egg, soy and wheat may be present in sauces; oyster sauce contains shellfish or fish in some brands.

One step at a time

Let’s make it

  1. Soak or cook noodles according to the packet and drain well.
  2. Heat oil in a wok. Cook chicken until opaque, then push aside and scramble eggs.
  3. Add broccoli and noodles. Stir in soy, optional oyster sauce and sugar; toss until glossy and chicken reaches 75°C.
  4. Taste before adding any extra soy. Serve chilli flakes only to adults.

Preparation and cooking times are estimates. Use the doneness checks in the method.

Make the texture work

Cut noodles shorter and keep broccoli separate if mixed noodles are new.

Season it properly

A small measured amount of soy, dark soy and oyster sauce creates the glossy flavour. Taste first; add no extra salt, and keep pepper or chilli for adults.

Simple swaps

Use tamari-style sauce only after checking labels; replace chicken with tofu or omit egg if needed.

Keep it safely

Refrigerate within 2 hours and use within 24 hours; reheat once until steaming hot.

Food education

What the ingredients bring

These are practical food-group notes, not a laboratory nutrition analysis. Portions and brands change the numbers.

  • Chicken and egg provide protein, iron and vitamin B12.
  • Rice noodles supply carbohydrate energy.
  • Chinese broccoli contributes calcium, vitamin C, folate and fibre.
Before serving: supervise eating and adapt size and texture to your child’s chewing skills. These are ordinary family recipes, not a treatment for autism or a prescribed swallowing diet.
