1. Prepare the noodles according to the package instructions.

3. Add the garlic, ginger, and scallion whites and stir-fry for 30 seconds, until lightly golden.
4. Add the mushrooms, carrots, and bell pepper, and continue cooking for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly.
5. Toss in the shrimp and cook until just pink and slightly firm.
6. Add the cooked noodles, oyster sauce, and soy sauce to the pan.
7. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes more, until the sauce is thickened and covers the noodles in a light sheen.
