Add the thinly sliced pork belly to the hot wok. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is crispy and its fat has rendered, about 3-5 minutes. If there is excessive rendered fat, you may carefully spoon some out, leaving about 1-2 tablespoons in the wok.

Season the ingredients in the wok. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over everything, then pour a generous amount of soy sauce (about 1/4 cup) over the noodles and vegetables. Add 1 tablespoon of chili flakes or chili powder.
⏱️ 1 min

Stir-fry all ingredients together quickly, tossing constantly, for 2-3 minutes. The goal is for the noodles to heat through and catch just a little color from the wok, absorbing the flavors.
