For a richer flavor, consider using sesame oil instead of vegetable oil. Be careful not to overcook the noodles, as they can become mushy. Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your liking, depending on your preferred level of sweetness. Add sliced vegetables, such as carrots, onions, and spinach, for a more substantial and colorful dish. For a protein boost, add some thinly sliced beef or tofu to the skillet along with the noodles.
