Cook the 150 g linguine according to the instructions on the packaging, in my case, for 12 minutes. Be sure not to overcook the pasta because it will be cooked and fried further, and overcooking can make your fried noodles very mushy. So, stick to the time indicated on the package for al dente pasta.
150 g linguine
After the cooking time, turn off the stove but let the linguine sit in the liquid in the pan for 10 minutes.
Drain the pasta in a colander and rinse the pasta with very cold water. This is to wash off the starch that is on the outside of the pasta. Let the linguine drain well.
Return the linguine to the pan, add the 2 teaspoons canola oil, 1½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon MSG, and stir the linguine well. Make sure there's a coating of oil evenly distributed over the pasta.
2 teaspoons canola oil, 1½ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon MSG
Heat a very small amount of canola oil in the wok over high heat. Once the oil is at temperature, reduce the heat to medium-high and add the eggs.
When the eggs begin to set, add the pasta. Stir-fry this for about 3 minutes until all the pasta is heated through
Now add the 150 g ham cubes and 2 green onions. Stir-fry this for another 2 minutes..
150 g ham cubes, 2 green onions
Turn off the stove and add 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 2 teaspoons sesame oil. Stir everything together.
1 tablespoon soy sauce, 2 teaspoons sesame oil
As we say in Dutch: Eet smakelijk!
