Ingredients: serve 4
9 ounces fresh Chinese noodles or 8 ounces dried linguine
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
3 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
3 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch
¼ cup water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 bunch scallions, white and green parts separated, both parts cut into 1 inch pieces

1 red bell pepper, mushrooms, seed and sliced thin
1 medium head bok choy, sliced crosswise into ¼ inch strips (about 4 cups)
